After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
Well, I finally got bit. I dont even remember how it happened.
Got my hand on the bottom of the miter saw after I let off the trigger an somehow my hand came up into the bottom of the blade as the guard was coming down. |

Re: After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
Looks like things are all still there, minus a nerve or two. I'm glad to hear it wasn't a horrible accident. Keep safe.

Re: After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
Ouch!
Sorry to see that. Did you nick it and patch it yourself or was there more to it? |

Re: After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
That's happened to me twice on a Chop saw. I do a quick count and find the digits are still there and still well attached. Then I realize that I was a fraction of an inch away from losing a finger
 Be careful out there, this ain't child's play! Glad to see you came out OK Warner. You'll be a little sketchy next time you pull the trigger on that saw, but it goes away.

Re: After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
"Innocence" is a terrible thing to lose! It means that you are no longer Innocent!
Get well soon and PAY MORE GD ATTENTION!

Re: After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
But that hand is so smooth, looks like a baby's behind. Must not be a day over 30 yrs old.
 I hope all is well inside there. Geez that scarey |

Re: After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
Best check to make sure,
but that hand is supposed to be connected to the brain!  Glad it's no worse, maybe a cheap warning to clear the Green Fog off your mind.

Re: After 10 Years I Lost My Innocents!
You carpenters are uncommonly brave. I can't even use a table saw, circular saw, or a miter saw because they scare me so bad. Gives me the willies everytime they fire up. Same thing with nailguns. Can't stand em. Have to build decks with a jigsaw and a hammer because I just can't get over it.
Oddly enough bricksaws and chainsaws don't bother me a bit. I think it's the shape of the blade that I can't stand. Woodcutting circular blades just look wicked. Anyway I hope you heal up fine. Your wound looks very professionally dressed. Are you going to lose any mobility in your hand? |
