I went with the needed stitches option, never had any, but I've used several band aids, a paper towel and duct tape to finally stop the bleeding after I ran my hand over the jointer while cleaning it, that got two fingers.
I should probably be the Murphy poster boy as if it can happen, it will happen to me...
Only woodworking I ever had was in 9th grade and after a kid ran his hand over the TS blade early on in the year, our power tool usage was greatly curtailed, so didn't learn much about safety and power tools...
So I'm finding out about kick backs, router launches, feeding wood though most anything powered, and all the rest of the good stuff as I go.
Am lucky enough to have had enough experience in other fields to know to keep anything you don't want maimed, away from anything sharp.
With the help of you guys, I've managed to keep everything attached, a bit beat up, but still attached...
Al...nice hobby if it don't kill or maim ya...
Remember our vets, they need our help, just like they helped us.
