Pullstart 62,840 #1 Posted February 3, 2022 Dead blow hammers don’t care if you’re wearing gloves or not. You smack a thin spot, you’ll blood blister every time. Dang it. 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,724 #2 Posted February 3, 2022 That is hurt spot for sure. Any chance you can get through 3 months without hurting yourself?? No bet here...I don't think you can do it. Just saying. Poke that thing with a needle on the edge and...let the blood out and grill another squirrel. 1 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 16,994 #4 Posted February 3, 2022 Or get a helper You nod your head and they'll hit it. Worst is when it's not a blister but big azz black and blue spot. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of bending it like L it needed to be like 7 but I bent it like V and was opening the aluminum back up by smacking it against my shop hoist arm. Either way, the hammer don’t care! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JAinVA 4,619 #6 Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) Kev, You can't get that kind of damage from key boarding.. The things you do put the hands in harms way, Got a blood blister doing things in the shop this week. Sewing needle and back to work. I would say be careful but Sh#t happens.

SylvanLakeWH 25,547 #7 Posted February 3, 2022 Dip the needle in rubbing alcohol before you do the blood letting… wouldn’t want to infect the latest boo boo… leeches work too but might not be readily available this time of year… 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
