I don't remember who gave me the super gluing cuts idea but THANKS.
 
There is a product that does the same thing sold at drugstores now. I tried  
the spray, but didn't care for it. Would recommend the brush on kind instead 
or  super glue if you don't have that.
    Every idea doesn't work all the time. LOL
    A fellow woodcarver and outstanding woodturner  sanded the top of  his 
knuckle on his belt sander. He  wanted to  get back to his carving. Tried 
superglue but the sanded knuckle wouldn't  stop as the blood kept coming thru. 
    Becoming impatient, he decided to put super glue on  it again and  spray 
accelator on it.  This is commonly done  when woodturning to get the glue to 
dry almost instantly so you can get  back to work.
    Sooooo, he put more super glue on the sanded  knuckle and then sprayed it 
with accelorator. BIG MISTAKE! It was extremely  painful, and actually began 
to smoke. He dashed to the sink and turned on  the cold water. It continued to 
smoke while still under the water and the  pain didn't abate at all. It was 
several minutes before he got any relief.  He passed this along as a warning. 
Yes, he has received much kidding about this  in spite of the original pain 
involved.
