Well, one of my brilliant coworkers dropped a computer, and the only thing that even remotley cracked was a bay cover, customer agreed to have it superglued right.

WELL, let me tell you, when the damn tip is glued solid, get something to poke it out, do not squeeze on the tube...

You want to know the reason why?

Superglued Fingernail to Thumb...THATS WHY! The tube broke, and glued some stuff together before I realized what happened... I broke out the dremel to fix this little mishap, hurt a little but it's all better now, trusty little dremel! :finga:

Another thing that I've learnt today, my girlfriend hates computers yet we're myspacing each other not even 10 feet apart! I got her though...

Superglue is great for cuts! Well supposedly, I never tried it :)

Tech - worst thing about that is the fact that you admit you actually use myspace :| Kinda like admitting your wrist hurts from self sustained strenuous activity :rolleyes:

Dremeling your fingers. Nice.

so you glued your nail to your thumb and used a dremel tool to get it off? You are a crazy SOB... What dremel tip did you use?

lol, that was actually my girlfriend, she was sitting in the livingroom and I was in the bedroom so that worked out.

As far as the dremel, I just used the normal cutting wheel on a reaaalllly low setting lol

Good thing you have a Dremel, I hate to think what you might have had to do if you didn't.

all the more reason for me to get one... I should ask for one for my birthday...

lol, I could have, but as soon as I did it my hand was right beside the dremel, first instinct was to grab the dremel! hehe
