No, I know where you are coming from Shawn. I invariably get some type of puncture wound during the stitching phase. But it doesn't end there. Those pieces of wire hang around the garage for years and strike when you least expect. I was down there barefoot this past summer and one of the twisted ends gave me a nice puncture. Serves me right for being in a garage without shoes.

Let us know if you happen upon a solution.
