Emergency Nail Repair

One of the unfortunate aspects of playing guitar is that you have to care for your nails.  I ripped this one up while making up a bed for a guest coming later this week.

It doesn’t hurt, but it needs immediate attention.  Luckily I have what I need.  Super glue with a brush, scissors, and a tea bag (without the tea).

Just S

Spread some glue, then some teabag fabric, then wait.

After it dries, trim and ad a bit more glue as a top coat.

 

Then trim and file like usual.  Discharged from the ER … go play guitar.

Note to self.  Watch out when putting sheets on the bed.
