I keep a first aid kit handy in the shop. *It's a plastic case with 10

This morning my daughter put a nasty cut on her finger. *It wasn't
deep but it was bleeding profusely.


I pulled out the box with the bandage compress and went to open it.
The damn plastic cover on the box was so sturdy that I couldn't tear
it open or split it at the seams wit my hands. *I used a razor knife..


If I had a shop accident in which I cut my hand or fingers, I don't
think I wouldv'e been able to open the damn box. *The thought of
bleeding out with an unopened compress in my hand kinna' spooks me.

Put the cut finger in fresh coffee grounds. *It stops the bleeding.

Stiptic pencil too.


Superglue.
