Second Implant After 4 Year Hiatus
Hey everybody, it's good to be back. You're all weirdos, but so am I. I stuck a magnet in my finger for the first time back in 2014, it was a basic parylene coated 3x1mm magnet from SuperMagnetMan. Obviously those are somewhat out of fashion these days. I used a Dangerous Things Pain Management Kit and a #10 scalpel, but I… -
