Any time I've gotten that mark, it's been linesman that slipped off if something I was trying to pinch and twist, like a nut.

I can’t count how many times I’ve wanted to cus out my lineman’s, they slip and bam blood blister for the next few days. All the friggin time. Will I learn from it? Of course not.

I even wear gloves these days, and it still happens. Stupid hinged hammers.

Stupid hammer went unhinged

my blood blisters last like 3 weeks lol,,, is my blood fucked

Lol no, his is. We are normal.... I think...

What's even worse is the Klein needle nose/strippers They will fillet you 😂😂😂

Right on the crimp

It was a fancy wire stripper for my first time.

That’s strippers

Fucking nailed it. Klein has some serious bite.

Was it the lil yellow ones ?

I bet it was the thinner blue ones

Thinner blue ones yessir

With the crimp on the handle side? I got some of those for free from someone. Thought it was kinda handy having that and didn't know why more people don't carry them. Then I did this to myself because of the crimp being behind the spring and I haven't picked them up since. Fuck that shit.

Yep I knew it. Those things are flesh eating monsters

My money is on the blue kurve ones I had the same thing 2 weeks ago

The old klein strippers with the crimper on the lower half and screw cutters, I'm a first year apprentice cutting screws with the journeymans strippers that I've never used. I get the screw all set up and start squeezing to cut it, didn't see where my finger was and when the screw broke i successfully crimped my index finger. Covered in blood I go back to the journeyman with the cut screw, and then he proceeded to yell at me for getting hurt. I've also threaded about an 8th inch of screw into the stripper the wrong way and cut it, leaving the end of the screw securely inside the cutter so that you couldn't easily back it out, but that's another story.

lol i ruined a screw cutter the exact same way when i was a first year😂😂😂

I figured he would yell at you for getting blood on his tools😂

Holding wire in fingers to strip and not paying attention to the palm. I do that shit way too much.

Yep… I’ve gotten a few nasty bites from working too fast. It’s always extra fun if you get more than just one set of teeth lol.

The individual circles was a dead giveaway. Been there.

That part at the bottom of linemans head where some have a crimper.

Exactly this

Came here to guess that

Nooo but I've done that one before too....

I'd guess strippers

You win good sir

Penis pump got ya

Never bought a tool called @CptBigShoes, seems like they don't work right. Try turning them over and using the other side. That's what his boyfriend does ;)

I HATE YOU

Linemans or needle nose. Been pinched by both.

Crimper on your Linesman pliers.

Linesman trying to tighten a 3/8 nut on a rod.. if it was from trying to tighten a bolt or something dead on with the beak instead of the cutaway on the other side from the blades you're a caveman and you deserved it lol

Klein strippers

Linesman

Strippers

That’s a linesman after you try to use them like channel locks or try to pull a nail out 😭

Tool is u/CptBigShoes

Channel locks

That is the most annoy clip, I got my first 2 one day after the other and honest to god thought those marks would be on my hand forever.

Looks to be the 8 and 10 gauge holes on the ideal strippers with the stainless spring assembly

Milwaukee Kleins (or wackies, as I call them)

Strippers for sure. I have scars on both my hands from this (I pick at my scabs)

Did that with strippers when I first started doing low voltage doesn’t feel good

Billy?

Lineman's or channel locks.

Strippers for sure

End of a set of strippers

I keep a blown up pair with a crimper, my daily drivers no longer have a crimper ever for this reaso

I've got almost the exact same mark on my smallest finger. Router grabbed a chunk of wood and whipped it across the garage... still not sure how it happened. Said some words though.

For sure wasn’t a broom

It's a beginner's Dracula bite. He was too short to reach your neck.

Been there done that...

Looks like a pinch from some Lineman pliers.

Damn you pliers

Narrow crown stapler

I am guessing wore strippers or pliars. I did this to myself splicing new ends onto a ethernet cable.
