Lazlo, point taken under consideration. Thanks.

What about one of those eyelet repair kits you get in camping stores? Basically a set of funky pliers and 100 eyelet things. They only cost about $5, would that work for holding your pants together?

I'll take the 'helper' in the middle to assist me~

1- Super Glue can be used to stop bleeding if applied quickly enough
2- Don't let the Kydex bubble or "burn". It releases chlorine gas...not good.
3- Don't be surprised if you get Kydex dust in your undies that crap gets everywhere!!

If you really think you have the "disease", set up a dedicated eyelet press. It'll be worth it.

Good luck!

#3 is just toooooo darn'd funny.

One morning a husband took a pair of his underwear out of the drawer.

"What the ?????", he said to himself, as a little "dust" cloud appeared, when he shook them out.

"Honey," he hollered into the bathroom, "why did you put talcum powder in my underwear?"

She shot back: "It's not talcum powder. It's 'Miracle Grow!"

Not that anyone will listen to little ole me, but if you habitually use regular super glue to bond your cuts, you are just slowly poisoning yourself. Please pony up for medicinal grade super glue to glue your fingers together.

If you happen to use regular super glue once for a cut, I doubt you will have any troubles later in life.

i read somewhere that scotch will negate the prolonged effect of the misuse of super glue, unless you sniff it which will surely glue your nose to the glass.

any doctors or nurses please feel free to comment...

That which does not kill you, makes you stronger.

Thanks! :thumbup:

As for the medic-grade skin adhesive, where does one find such? I would like to add some to each of my First-Aid kits.

I did use Super-Glue on this one. The only adverse effect is that it made my unmentionable even bigger.

Let the wisecracks begin.

you can find it at any pharmacy. liquid bandage, or something like that.


new skin? works well, but stings like a mr. mofo when you put it on!

MedTech Labs in Jackson WY makes a great product that's named, 'Liquid Bandage/New Skin'. It burns a bit if the cut is deep, but then seals it right up. make sure to flush out any deep cut before using this to close it up 3/4th's of the way. Leave a bit open at each end of the cut to allow it to drain, it should'nt bleed profusely once the main part is closed with NS. I've been using it for 10 years and i think I'm still normal! Normal for a knife nut!
