Wow! That sucks!

Haha here's another life lesson. When working with paint remover, WEAR GLASSES! Getting that nasty brown goop in your eyes hurts.

Ouchies!! That stinks...and yeah, it's sad that it took you two times to figure it out! :fishslap: ...;) I used to solder for a living and got so used to burning my fingers that I hardly ever noticed anymore...the smell bothered me more than the burn. LOL

Ick how horrible.. I'm super paranoid, so I've never burned myself while soldering.

I did it once when I was a kid. I was soldering a part on a dirtbike and a piece dripped onto my hand. I still have the scar to prove it.

Yikes that's nasty Jamie.. must have been a good bit of solder.

Yeah..Definitely very uncool. I am the master of scars and injuries. I have been hurt more than most. I was a reckless kid.

lol.. I am glad I don't scar. I've had my share of battle wounds from being thrown from horses, bitten by dogs (got nailed good by a scottie today) and other various things.

Try 250 stitches in your head...Not fun at all! And if anyone is wondering where my mental illness comes from, that was prob it.
