So I almost cut my finger off with a Milwaukee grinder. Ya know, the very thing that can cut through metal like butter...thankfully because it was at full speed, the wound cauterized so I didn't bleed like a sieve. Although my body went into shock. Quite an experience...

    Carbonate blade?  Seen cuts from those.  This is the deepest one I’ve heard of though. Those things leave an ugly wound.  They don’t really have teeth just jaggies.  Things are powerful enough to twist in your hand from the centrifugical force.

    I'm fine now, but it still hurts. Currently feels like multiple bee stings, but warm. Bet it will be a few months before it'll heal right.

     

    No idea what exact blade it was, but it was a metal cutting wheel.

    In the trades they have a saying. Don't put your hand where you wouldn't put your d***.

     

    So in your example whatever it was you were cutting. Think about it before you put your hand on the work. Would you put your d*** there? No? Then don't put your hand there.

     

    And if you think I'm joking I'm not. The characters you meet while working in a trade they have A LOT of inappropriate humor but this one is at least productive in a sense.
