re: Dangerous home shop tools

I wrecked my index finger with an angle grinder a few weeks ago. No guard on it. Stupid I know. Before I even knew what happened it peeled the skin an meat off from the base of my fingernail to the second knuckle. It was almost cauterized from the wheel. It didn’t bleed much strangely enough.

Not a serious injury but scary that it happened literally in the blink of an eye.
