Blood in the Hangar.....a cliff hanger.....
It is true: a little blood goes a long way!
This is an old thread with current implications. From one who has to sew up these unfortunate encounters with sharp and flying objects: if it is a hole that looks like you need to have it repaired, DO NOT use Super Glue! Half of the time it takes to put said hole back together involves trying to remove all of the Super Glue. And that is not much fun. Something bleeding? Wash it in cold water and apply pressure. Put some tape on it (not duct tape: hard to remove the stickum) and keep working so you don't forget where you were. Then go have it looked at. You have 5-6 hours to get it repaired if it needs stitches, up to 24 hours if on the face. If it is a large hole or if your SO tells you to get to the emergency room, go now.
A drilled out rivet head on a drill bit makes a dandy miniature buzz saw. It’s amazing how a few cc’s of blood can make a shop look like a crime scene.
