/diy/ - Do It Yourself

This is what a "blast injury" looks like. One of the most common causes of this injury is pressurized tank failure. I saw a guy two months ago who was doing the SAME FUCKING THING YOU ARE. He was in the attic of a house using an old air compressor, standing next to it when the tank ruptured. It blew both of his legs into splinters, and the tank was only like 30 gallons.

Do you have any FUCKING idea how painful a blast injury is? You can buy a new tank for less than $100 bucks. Attach it to the old compressor, and you're good to roll.


You have any idea how much money it costs to open both of your legs up surgically, take all of the pieces of bone out with a pair of tweezers, and reconstruct each bone while you're under anesthesia.... ?

Don't be a moron!
