Super glue to the rescue
Today's forecast; a high of cold, a low of bitter cold, with very cold throughout the day.....
We have been seeing lows of -14°F (-25.5°C) and highs of 16°F (-9°C) all week. The cold air drys out the hands and I get cracks in the skin just above my finger and thumb nails. These crack hurt because they're in a sensitive part on the body. Here's the fix, open the crack slightly and apply a dab of super glue,hold the crack together with slight pressure, instant relief.............................. |
Also works for when mishaps occur in the garage while tinkering on the bikes! And its an antiseptic, which is great for an infection prone guy like myself.

Used to use it for razor blade cuts on my knuckles.
Stings, don't it? |

Hot date?, High School reunion? a court hearing? |
None of the above, Teeks.
In my former life as photoengraver, I had a large tape dispenser with multiple rolls of litho tape. To get a clean edge I would replace the serrated cutter with a utility knife blade that fit in the slot real nice. Got to the point where I didn't have to look at the tape dispenser to pull multiple pieces of tape. Every once in awhile though, I would whack a knuckle across the blade. Had to stop the bleeding quickly because when using achromatic litho film red shows up as black. We couldn't have that |
