• To be honest the solder sounds worse,
    It didn't go in hot did it?

    A friend that makes knives got some swarf in his eye which is where the suction apparatus story came from, maybe it's a Bristol thing ha

  • It did go in hot! Left a brown spot in my otherwise blue eye that lasted for years! I also had to undergo an hour of "eye washing" to counteract the chemical burn from the flux.

    I actually didn't realise what had happened until about six hours later as it went in so hot I didn't feel it.

  • maybe it's a Bristol thing

    I got punched in the face by a guy wearing a ring that left a scar on the surface of my eye. Years later I've still got a little speck in my vision in that eye. I remember it took me about 6 months to stop trying to absent-mindedly swat a fly that wasn't there. Maybe Bristol's just a bit eye-hostile?
