    I appreciate that you called it a $0 build and not a free build, the connections, privilege, and friendships needed to get this done are beyond any monetary value. Don't feel like you need to go this above and beyond for everything you do, we don't want you getting stressed and burnt out, it's just cool to see a neat person doing something they love.

      Technically... You can get the resources for free from people throwing them out on the likes of Facebook marketplace (and other sites). There's also spaces that will let you use their tools, but they might want you to say... Donate some wood or metal or something (which again, you can get for free if you keep your eyes on marketplaces), or maybe they'll just ask you to put a shift or two in and help them around the workshop in return. For obvious reasons, they don't really advertise that. But if you ask really nicely, there's a small chance they'll say yes. :)

    First, a safety advice: Never wear gloves or a hoodie while working with rotating powertools.
    Second, a medical advice: If you ever chop off one of your body parts, store the part cool (refrigerator) but not too cold (ice). And DON'T allow moisture to come in contact with the tissue. Otherwise the amputated part will soak and decay. If you are next to a kitchen, grab a plastic bag (those to store food in) or a Tupperware box. Seal it properly and put the container on something cold. Between some cheese slices for example. Thank me later. Please like the comment so everyone can learn from his mistakes. Therefore the finger won't be lost for no reason. Great video btw

    Did you know AAA has a policy where if you're forced to use another tow company they have to reimburse you? Look for their reimbursement form. We had to use it and it honestly saved us because we couldn't really afford the cost of that 100 mile tow.

    Short medical advice: Never put cut off parts in water.
    The water denaturates the proteins of the wound, making it impossible to reattach.
    Just keep it cool and clean.
    If possible 3 bags: 1 for the cut off part, the other two for cold water and store the part inbetween.

    For future reference if you cut an finger off or any part of your body off, put it in ice! Not water, water has micro organisms and you just take the blood off the part. In ice the finger remains intact "mostly" and plus it's more probable that it can be reinplanted that's why they put organs in ice to preserve it.

    • @SmolPotatowo
