    Four stitches, FUN WOW!

    I decided to start working on my GP265 again and while cutting something off a sponson, WHOOPS, it's a gusher! It was one of those, if I slip it's going to be messy moments and you know you can't stop even if you wanted too??

    in to the ER at 6:30, out and stitched up by 10pm, not bad for a free visit, thanks heath Canada! Great doctor, laughing and kidding all through it.

    Boy it hurts like a BEACH. No pain killers until tomorrow.

    Cut the top of my left index finger. Damn ML boats, I'LL SUE!!! LOL

      Always found I built the best boats when they drew blood, lol. Take care of that wound Ray.

        Ray,
        You can't build a really fast boat without a little blood. Stitches may be a little extreme. At least the new ML will be fast, with that much blood it could be a record setter.
        Take care of that hand.

          If there's no blood, it's not a project. Congrats on achieving project status with this build.

            Thanks guys. It';s been a PITA with trying to get pain meds but, they're on the way

            Cut the top of left index finger, nicked a tendon but, it'll be o.k.... It's the throttle finger too!!!

            It's going to be the fastest N2 Sport Hydro EVER! lol...

              Hey Ray, take care of your hand, glad you are taking it with good humor though...
              I cringe every time I hear something like this though, but that is just because of my profession. Anyway, have a speedy recovery!
              Too many boats, not enough time...

                  Welcome to team Scar Tissue! Few years ago had an exacto roll off the desk and bury the blade full depth in my thigh. My worst RC related accident. No hospital visit required though.
                  As a kid had the fingers bitten a few times by Cox .049s. No blood but it sure did hurt.
                  My ex is a doggy doctor, had her do emergency repairs on me a few times. She used to get this evil gleam in her eye every time I hurt myself, for some odd reason the repairs always seemed to hurt more than the original injury!
                  If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

                          I was modding the sponsons, cutting off something I glued on earlier, don't do that! lol...

                          So it's been a week now, shall I remove my stitches now or wait a bit, longer?

                              You have a small square or 123 blocks? I know you know it needs to be square. Nice build board... Home Depot is hopefully getting me a remnant piece of corian next week.
