STOP THE PAIN
marfaguy:
I did the same thing but it was my big toe. I had a cart of small scrap wood I
flipped over into the trash bin. It rolled straight back head-on into my big toe.
Took about two weeks before the nail finally came off, then six to seven months to
grow back. A year later I did the same thing to the other foot when I was helping
a friend load a double door refrigerator into his pick up.

I had my nail of my toe popped not while in the shop but on the beach trying to be a soccer player (some will say football) when I'm not. That was our 1st day of our company retreat and we just got there. While the guys are having fun, I was in the hotel with nail clipper and needle removing the sand while cutting the whole nail off. It was very very painful. Few months after, the nail grew back.
Lesson: don't try to be what you aren't. I'll stick to the small white ones...
Thinking of building the scaled down version of a ball turner for my Sherline's lathe....
Weston Bye:
I performed the operation on my 10-year-old daughter some years ago after she got her finger slammed in a door. She was tough, but the finger really hurt, so she was game for anything that promised relief. Not only that, but she hadn't achieved enough years to render me totally stupid yet, so she trusted me. She calmly observed the process and was gratified by the result, and still remarks some 30 years later about the "ostomy" that I performed.

No need for a drill with this one :doh:

When you have drilled the hole to relieve the pain, then use this lot to seal the hole up to stop any nasty infection.
