Lowboy in Street Trucks again....

Last summer when we were putting a diff under the duece, I was grinding off big tabs and wearing gloves, not the proper gloves, it bit back....12 stitches between the fingers...

oowieee

Anybody who's sat for almost 12 hours in the po folks E.R. waiting for the eye clinic to open so they could get tiny shards of metal dug out of their eyeball with a fukin needle and then the "rust rings" that form almost immediately, buffed out with a goddam DREMEL like tool, "Oh don't move your eye at all" while we shine this light that is brighter than the fukin sun in it and hack on your eyeball with sharp tools, ya HELL ya, SAFETY FIRST and I got that shit just from SWEEPING THE SHOP UP WITH THE BIG SHOP FAN ON...no, I wasn't really thinking about wearing my safety spex then.

True story and it sucked ass, completely.

Oh and we dont let Eric jack trucks up either. hahahaaaaaaa

My dad caught a chisel in his eye. The chisel won.

Oh man...sheesh...I cant imagine big eye dammage like that. uggh


I havent dropped a truck/car off a jack in at least a month...

That '92 C&C I'm stripping down, had it on stands in the back because rear axle is gone, guy comes over to buy the spindles and springs. I go to break the lugs loose on the driver's side front tire and send the truck rolling forward (who didn't see that coming, right???) off the jackstands, crashing to the ground, and within about 2" from punching into a 350 sitting on a cart in front of the truck, and through the rear shop wall.

He's standing right next to it and the frame gets really close to changing his shoe size.......dunno man, all I could do was laugh. I was thinking, jeez H glad he can't sue me for ALMOST chopping his toes off.

My dad lost a battle with a punch press also, left hand missing the fingers from knuckle up. That wasn't his fault machine malfunctioned, he actually had shut it down a few days before but supposedly they had fixed it.
