What a day-pictures added for Dave
« on: May 15, 2011, 08:04:35 pm »
  Have you ever had one of those days when you were doing something with a table saw, really following all the safety rules and it still didn't work out? I was cutting some knife scales for Jonathan Creason for a trade we had going and I'm sorry to say that Jonathan wil have to saw the rest. I was cutting some pretty cocabola, using a push stick and pushing the wood in from the side with my left hand thumb and index finger. The blade hit a knot at the very end of the cut and kicked back, broke in half, bruised the crap out of my left thumb and tore off a pretty good chunk of my index finger. I sat in the ER for four hours for them to clean, and wrap it good so I can go to work tomorrow. There was no sewing this back up, it'll take some bondo or some cut off my butt and patched in. :D

Dang Eddie, I hate that.  Sucks that you got hurt trying to hook me up.  That sure is some purty wood, though.  I've got a 14" bandsaw so I can cut the rest no problem.

Sorry to see that, it always has me nervous when I cut thin strips for that reason. Just glad you still have all your digits. ;)

Damn the luck Eddie ;D. Ya know, I'm gonna catch it one of these days I'm sure. I took all the safety devices off my table saw to rip staves and such, I do use a push stick when it get's to the end but I just have a feeling, hmm..

That sucks.  Sorry to see that happen to you.  I use a table saw nearly everyday and many times a day, stuff like this is always on my mind.  No matter how safe you are, accidents will always happen.  Especially if you leave all of the OSHA crap on your tools. ;D  Hope you make a fast recovery.

Outlaw, I started to take a picture before I left for the ER, but I had stopped it before it started to leak real bad. I'll take you some in a couple of days when I have to rewrap it ;) Thanks, my good buddies Ron and Mike, you're about as sympithetic as my wife and daughter. My daughter told her friends to move their cars because it must be nasty because I said' "take me to the ER", and didn't ask for Super Glue or a band aid. ;D
