Speaking of paper cuts, does anyone still make field band-aids out of strips of those blue shop towels and electrical tape?

Bloody oath.

I actually diced my finger up pretty good on an sr-790 finisher the other day at the cop shop, I had a police guard watching over my shoulder and he goes, "do you want me to get you a band-aid?'

I was like "what for?"

He goes "so ya stop bleeding all over the carpet."

haha.

Yep, I carry both in my tool bag. I think the last time I did that was a week ago. Then when I get to my van I put on a band aid that I keep in the van.

I seem to get cuts from the white plastic strips that hold paper boxes together. Or from opening the part boxes with my keys or a little flat-blade. Does anyone ever get those little cuts on your fingers that open up and bleed every time you do... well anything. I apply a layer of super glue to hold it together. works really well and does not get in the way like plasters.

Believe it or not, according to urban legend that was the original purpose behind superglue - to give medics on the battlefield a way to patch the guys up long enough to make it to a MASH unit.

WHAT ? Has someone already come up with an easier way of trying to stop the blood flow ?
