Ouch

Post by rcmatt007 »

So i was cutting up some scrap with my miter saw and the darn thing kicked.
So the triage nurse asked the stupid question "on a scale of 2-10..." I said it hurts like hell... on a scale of 2-20. So I said 11!

Good news all fingers work

Unusual for a miter to kick so I too would have been surprised. Hope nerve damage is minimal.

That’ll slow you down a bit. Must have been a sliding miter saw? The good news is you’re not a young fellow but still getting after it.
