stoopid is, as stoopid does

Go get it looked at! Why take a chance.
|
Sorry K. Sometimes the longer you use tools the better chance you have of getting hurt. Complacence sets in and safety is an after thought. I know I do it all the time. Sometimes after a near miss, usually once a week, I tell myself I am a stupid SOB. I got all my digits but they are god awful ugly looking fingers. If I had a dollar for every scar I'd be very rich. Good luck with your recovery.

I can feel that in my finger right now. That must have killed!!

hi JOE
Rockfish9 :wave:
------------------------------------------------------ Karl ...i'm glad you didn't do it worse than That.... please be careful... i robotize with anything i do that involves rotating blades as i switch from table saw to skill saw to chainsaw.... i keep distance from the blade foremost on my mind .... |
When I was a kid we used to joke about having a 5/8 thumb, I know a few guys who don't have all of one now. My brother had a guy working in his cabinet shop, stuffed some fingers in a dado blade, nothing left to stitch back on, he was in his 60s and had been working with saws for a long time. All power tools can bite you. Every year I feel less invincible.
|
Dam that hurts. :(
Glad it wasn't worse. |
Pete
you reminded me ....with the 5/8's thumb ...
old mr Pearson had measured all his fingers to each crease line and rarely needed a ruler... his whole table saw was made out of wood except for the motor. belt, pulley and the saw blade.... of course... |
ONE more time...get glasses u old fart.....drop the wood off at the shop say how big .... I won't even charge ya.Now go an make up a story of how that bluefish and u did battle.

Glad you had it stiched up there Karl. Your well on your way to pumping out some plugs.
|
I hope it heels up fast for you Karl.
The table saw is by far the scariest tool in my basement. I was reading the beginning of the thread and I made an audible gasp when I got to the 'thumb meets table saw Blade'. God I hate reading that. |
:shocked: Just glad you did not lose one Karl. Hope you heal up quick.
|
phew
and here i thought we were gonna have to call you thumper.:wall:

Table saw safety
I always have 4 pushsticks on the saw at all times.
Fingers never get within 6 inches of that blade. Sawstop is a VERY good idea. I remember a sign posted in a shop a few years ago right next to an old 12 inch table saw that read: "This saw was meant to CUT" It doesnt distinquish between a finger or a piece of wood. over on WOODNET, there are plenty of examples of people that just blinked for a second..... Just food for thought..... |
