i was doing some work to my project car - today's task was to swap out the front strut bearings. i was going to take out the whole strut, put it in my vise, swap out the bearing and install it again.

so i went ahead and loosened the bolts on the top and bottom of the strut and tried to wrestle it out. cue me wondering why it wouldn't budge. of course! i had forgotten to disconnect the sway bar and it was putting loads of pressure on it! 

so i quickly set about loosening the nut of the sway bar mount. it wouldn't budge. ah, right. i bolted in the strut again so the parts wouldn't be straining against each other. i proceeded to remove the nut with my impact wrench. 

you might have noticed that i forgot an important step. yeah. securing everything by placing a jackstand underneath the strut assembly.

the sway bar disconnected and this in turn caused the spring to decompress and the suspension just *shot* downward. the brake disc smashed onto my left hand.

i noticed some pain in my finger, but thought it was probably just bruised. then i tried to get a jack under the suspension assembly to lift it up, i noticed that something felt funny in my finger. i took my gloves of and looked it at it. well. i don't think that's the way a finger's supposed to look like.

i called up my dad who was going to meet me at the garage later to let him know not to come as i would be driving to the hospital because i thought i might've broken my finger. he told me to wait and collected me, knowing i would likely be in shock. 

i sat in the waiting room at the hospital for some time. that's when it finally started to hurt. by the time a doctor came to see me, it was hurting pretty badly. the doctor was this gruff, stereotypical eastern european. 'ahh, let me see finger. ah, is broken, yes. we need to check if tendon ripped!' and proceeds to bend the fuck out of my broken finger. 'ah, tendon is good!' 

i got sent to the x-ray where they took this:

in the end, they had to fix it with a little nail inside my finger to hold it at least somewhat straight, as the bones would always slide apart. now that it's all healed... well, the finger's still crooked and i can only move it about halfway. i don't mind too much, though. it's a constant reminder to always be careful when wrenching. like my very own warning sign!

this is how it looks like today: http://i.imgur.com/91tgjsq.jpg

 

so fellow redditors: when doing work on your car or other machinery, watch out for your fingers!
