Ah sheit! Crap luck. These things happen to the best of us, hope it's not too serious.
Pictures of the injury are available but I'm sure no one wants to see that.
I want to see it, for science.

Super glue is useful too (particularly for Stanley blade / chisel injuries).

Well if no one else went to A&E today I going to claim worst day!
Got a little too close to my table saw blade. Pretty much fixed it up myself but went to the professionals for a second opinion.
Top DIY tips for today.
If you are bleeding quite a bit from a finger dose it in tcp or similar get the skin back in place and wrap it, preferably in the tubular bandage especially made for fingers (it has an applicator that comes in the box). We should all have this to hand when we are working.
Stay safe and don't be like Airhead :)
