I just did the same thing Peter. I have a first aid kit, and was suprised to learn that I did not have enough gauze for a cut that large. And the tape didnt stick. So, thats why I had to use duct tape and paper towels. So I made a trip to Walgreens and bought supplies.
Close, it was a “Chandler Charmer” circa 1982 (over by the air park) it was the type of attic hatch hidden behind a light fixture.
I dont believe that BK is starving to death. If I am busy, he has got to be busy. 14 out of the 20 this month have been bank owned, (vacant at least 6-12 months.)
Its not been as busy as I would like, but better than nothing. I have bookings through next Thursday.
I think BK does spend a lot of his time up in Sedona… maybe he is marketing up there…? :mrgreen:
The metal hatches that I have seen are on attics in hallways, usually hidden under a square light fixture. A bulb on a metal arm that folds up and doubles as a attic light. You have to remove the plexiglass cover to see the metal hatch. I will take a picture of it this weekend (I am meeting the buyer at the house on Saturday)
Started carrying a First Aid kit years ago while doing a roofing job. Spattered one of my fingertips with a framing hammer that glanced off a sinker (nail). Looked like I had butchered a hog up on the roof and I had to crawl down a ladder while applying pressure on the finger. Wrapped a couple of those fabric bandades around what was left and went back to work. I include Benadryl in the kit too for wasp stings and or fun events that we run into in this business. Hope your leg heals fast. It feels good when it stops hurting.
Cheryl,
Wearing pants wouldn’t have made any difference except perhaps to bury some fabric inside your wound that would need to be dug out. But thanks to you I will be adding the largest size butterfly bandages to my 1st aid kit. Sort of reminds me of the time I buried the tip of a machete in my shin in Hivaro headhunter country way deep in the Equadorian jungle. No duct tape handy so needle and thread was the only way to go. I wish you a speedy recovery
