You're working on your car in a cramped space something is tight, really tight, but you just know that as soon as the spanner moves it's going to fly off and you're going to punch that big metal oblect in front of your hand. Push, piiiiiiiiiing!!!! thump, AAAAAAARGH! Well revers that situation, you're under a wheel arch pulling TOWARDS yourself, knowing fine whats away to happen, the spanner is going to hit you right in the face as soon as that bolt moves! How commited are you? do you find another way to get it undone or do you take it like a man and carry on? See if you can guess which one i chose......... The shaft of the spanner bounce off my nose and the top jaw kebabed my forehead [:^(] Afterwards, i wished i was a cowrd
haha i no what you mean, lying down looking at a bolt directly above you is the best, you no somets gonna drop in your eyes, you dont get goggles coz uve managed to gt the ring on the awkward bolt/nut, bang the nut turns, smack your head hits the sumps as you naturally sit up coz theres a mahoosive bit of rust covered in oil in your eye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
haha. been there too. youve finally got a good grip and angle on the ****er, hell or high water, its gonna come off. i had that once with my oil filter housing gasket. was un doing the final allen bolts, finally got it, but knew that when it went my hand was going to get hammered into something. i did it anyway, still got the scar. the bleeding always stop tho, but bolts dont always come off. that my theory
last week i put a hole through my finger doing that, this week i put a bruise across my jaw, and last year my friend lost the sight in 1 of his eyes when a stupid brake shoe retaing spring/clip flew off when he was trying to fit it.
little lesson, always wear googles then again who has time? hahaha only for angle grinders and sparky/ swarf tools
Nasty, but funny I once slipped off a nut in the engine buy taking loads of skin off my knuckles. I threw the fu**ing spanner, that then bounced off the glass sunroof that was fitted and showered the inside with glass. Think it is funny as fuc* now but at the time i was well pi**ed off.
Sod law tbh, like the time i hurt some part of me, turned round kicked a wheel and tyre, turnedround and continued to curse and swear. Next thing i heard was a loud bang, the wheel had taken off down the car park and broken my neighbours number plate on his then brand new brava
I think we need to see a happy smiley pic as you look like a convict in that one. lol ...or maybe just peeded off because a spanner landed in your face?!
