Never cut myself on a PC case before but one time I managed to nick the artery in my left thumb with a stanley knife at at friends house. I was blacking out by the time I reached the bathroom (across a mid sized landing) and all I could say was "sorry about your carpet". I woke up in the car on the way to the hospital with my hand bandaged and tied to the handle above the window.

Surprising, not yet, I've fiddled a lot around old and new computers and not one injury... yet... 

 

 knock on wood right. Sometimes I find it happens and you don't really remember it happening or how.

 

Wires, all the time, lacerations, blood, pain :(

 

Sad day, yea I can't wait for the day where they make cables that bend completely flat. The tricky one I hate with a passion is 4 pin molex it never seems to go as flat as you'd like. SATA cables for the win :)

Now you can say your computer has a "personal" touch.

That doesn't sound good at all glad you didn't bleed out man that wouldn't be good.

Cut my self quite a few times. Most of them when I was cable sleeving and the pins were being difficult to remove and so pulled hard and then got cut by the pin as it came out. Also been cut by spinning fans.

I cut myself on my friend's Antec 900v2. Because, you know, who needs rolled edges? They make killing a goat with your case so much more difficult.

True. But if you get the 900d you could just crush the goat instead....

I cut myself on pretty much everything, so I try to protect my hands by wearing gloves then cut myself on a box edge further up my arm :angry: fricken paper cuts...

I once cut myself when changing a Chassis. I didn't realize till afterwards when I looked down and saw I had a light cut on my wrist.

I got a few tiny cuts playing around in my old PC (which was prebuilt) but never after that.

No idea how you manage to cut yourself, be more careful. Been working with hardware for quite a couple of years now, never cut myself while handling it.

Sometimes its just having larger hands and not being able to squeeze wires through tight spots or when cable managing having a connector brush against you. There are a million things that could cut you.
