Has any of you guys ever worked on a garage door.. Last year I was replacing that spring on top of the door and didn't realize how tightly it was wound up.. So I started looseing the bolts and as I was working on the last one the spring unwinded and shot out with full force and of course my hand was in the way.. It was bleeding like crazy. Four of the fingers on my right hand was useless for a couple months.. Now that hurted

Good thing you didnt do that working at home. Same thing could have happened then I think you would have had a lot of problems getting work to pay for it. Although I dont really know.
