So i finally got some extra money to get some headpins :D

I figured the first set of earrings i'd make with them would be the two small d20s my roommate suggested using.

Tried the first one..and it got stuck on the bit XD

Then, i had to let the battery charge a bit on the drill, and i tried getting the dice off of the bit..and..

It broke D:

So i was like ''ugh, ok. Let me do some research'' so i looked up how to properly drill through dice, and i thought i'd try again.

So here i am, trying again on the other one with a slightly bigger bit, and it slips off the die..and into my thumb..

Looks worse than it is i'm sure, there's just a lot of blood XD

Serves me right for not waiting and just getting a clamp like i should have, but of course i was impatient!

Anyways, have you ever done anything stupid because you were impatient?

:x

That thumb pic looks YUMMEH.

Anywho, I've never drilled through dice, but is it hard? lol No offense! :P I just think that a hot drill going through plastic dice.. I suppose it would be slippery. e_e

I wouldn't wanna do that. lol I'd probably end up drilling straight through my hand. I'd be like, 'Oh, I'm handy with power tools, I swear. This is just stigmata.' xD

I think what I would have done is hammered a nail in it at first to get a nice indentation for the drill bit, THEN start to drill.

I was taking apart a staircase my first time striking a set. Not having so much experience with drills, not having the three years I have now, I had my hand near the screw I was removing. Popped a neat little hole in my thumb. Haven't done that one again!

Its not that hard. I just didn't do it right XD I should have had the dice in a clamp. Drilled through halfway, came out, and gone in through the other side.

Im pretty good with my drill, just rather unsafe with it XD

Omg, Natsu, be more careful, sheeeeeeesh. =P AND I've never tried to drill dice, but I do do stuff after I get impatient. Like once I was waiting for the ink to dry on a picture I did. And I was all "it must be dry by now!" after ten minutes, and I started to rub the pencil out and it wasn't dry. Smudged ink everywhere. FML. LMAO.

But yeah. Be more careful!

agh, id be too scared to drill anything. im very clumsy. im even too scared to hammer in a nail D:

This. :c I'm AWFUL when it comes to doing things where (at least some) skill is involved. xD I was the little kid who always cut themselves with safety scissors.

But I hope you're okay, . D: d20 earrings sound pretty fucking epic (in a nerdy way, of course.)

I love making earrings. Its a fun hobby that one day might make some money.

Im excited to try the d20s again. Those might be more popular than my lego or scrabble earrings.

99% of the stupid shit I do is because I'm impaitent. Kisses thumb all better

Btw: Your Jewelry making skills are bomb ass.

lol I was pulling on my Wellies to go horseback riding and as i was pulling them on I somehow fell over and my face landed in a cake my dad (yes my dad) was frosting. i never realized how good chocolate frosting tastes lol

Aw man, Faceplat into a cake? Thats so awesome! thats a good story XD

ty jen bb.

Tsk! You both have numbers in your names D:

well. I can't remember a time I was impatient...but I did watch a home video of me when I was little...and I was so embarrassed by it.

it was my first birthday, apparently. I was sitting in my chair, and my father was teasing me about my gifts. i wanted to open them, but when i was close to the unveiling...alas he would pull the gift away. lots of chuckles. ^^;

being a lil kid, you can imagine my temperment. XD so I started to freak out even though the chair limited my movements. therefore i was just rocking back and forth...headfirst. my father, who is a jerk to little kids XD, put the whole birthday cake in front of me. and SPLAT. i went headfirst into the uncut cake. oh joy.

lol. I was getting ready to look at a really squeamish photo.. but it doesn't look that bad :)

Once, when I was a kid, I was cutting macaroni and I cut between my finger with the scissors. A few years ago, I had sliced my thumb with scissors. Man, that was gross. I felt it split. D:

Well it wasn't ME who was impatient it was my BROTHER's So we were going to the basement to get something. I went in first to the stairsbut my brothers didn't turn on the light and he told me to go faster. I went faster but someone pushed me.... Take note the stairs weren't all soft and covered with carpet. It had like grips on it so the edge of the stair case is sharp... Yeah i went down those nice steps face first. Should of seen the bruise i had on my head D: All the cuts and bruises i got from that LOLOL I have horrible experience with stair cases ;~; coughcough one time i slipped and my back hit the staircase really really and i mean REALLY hard. It was so hard i couldn't breathe for 30 seconds. I was sitting there crying thinking this is the moment ill have flash backs of my very short life.

Ouch D: I use drills pretty often to drill holes into metal (for better/easier sawing or just for a hole) and I've had times where I lose grip on the sheet metal and it starts spinning around the drill while I freak out and switch it off, hoping it won't fly off and cut me, and other times where the drill bit has snapped. (One time, the drill bit snapped and hit me on a finger, I forget which, and got stuck. D: It was rather stupid because I usually wear a large concave ring on that finger, but had momentarily switched it over to a different one XD)
