Ahhhh, slot cars! Now you are talking. Re-wind, de-wind, power brakes, trophies....

Maybe try to find a styptic pencil Lloyd. Basically alum. Wet the tip and touch it to cuts. Draws up the blood vessel. Old timey product used for shaving when the choice we had was those nasty double blade razors.

WalMart is an unreliable place to seek out competency, imo. 

I see you also have a gift for understatement. ;)

Thanks Bobby,

I wanted to get something from local businesses, for the immediacy of it, not waiting for delivery.

May have no other choice, though.


I'll have to look out for a styptic pen, too.  Thanks, Jerry.

I understand about local business and immediacy. I would check with local outdoor outfitters that have "survival" supplies. I get things really fast from Amazon, so you can have a stock in case.  Styptic pencils work pretty good on small cuts.

I was on two heavy blood thinners for a year after my attack.  (down to only one now)

A small scrape would seep blood for what seemed like hours, and would eventually just flood a normal bandage.

I used supper / crazy glue ... not elegant at all ... but I could quickly "build a scab" that wouldn't continue to bleed.

There's a medical form of this (Walgreen's around here has it) that we keep handy: it also has some antiseptic in it. Stops a deep razor blade cut from bleeding, after removing the gasket material from the wound....
