The cut was seemed minor but the joint is still sore and a little numb. Good luck with that. I am not sure I would want to trade you. This is just a flesh wound, no joints involved. |

Should be more careful. Harder to heal at our advanced years. Unfortunately will do dumb stuff. I used the power planer to grind on the pointer finger about 6 months ago. Instead of putting the little piece in the vise, held it in my hand. Piece went flying, and drug finger in to the portable planer. |

I've had some near misses using a router table, even when using push sticks and a fence. |

You can still get hurt if the the cutting edge locks up and spins the drill motor out of your hands but at least it's not a nasty cut. |

Seems like I can't do anything without hurting myself. Hope you heal quickly. Isn't that the truth. I read somewhere that we bleed much easier because our skin looses oil and little things tend to stick and tear rather than slide off. Pruning azaleas without gloves causes significant blood loss. -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

I always have some kind of ding somewhere. I clean with Chlorhexadine and dress it twice a day or more so I am not really worried too much about it. |
