The splint is gone now, as is most of the scarring. I'm playing guitar and riding again, and doing everything else. Including woodcarving, which I never had any intention to give up, even after this. <br><br>I'm <I>back</I>, guys :wink: <br><br>Ethan]]></content:encoded>

Got me beat by a LONG way. Although the back of my hand's got a lot of little fine lines, none of them are particularly long, in fact the longest one's about 3 inches. However, if you added up the total length of the stitching used....well, I reckon that'd re-string a couple of nylon acoustics.<br><br> :D  :D  :D <br><br>Vic]]></content:encoded>
