Hi there, all.

This is my penalty for doing a stupid thing:

While using my Rotozip with a router bit to roundover some small holes, I managed to stick my finger tip into the bit from above, and I removed several square millimeters of skin from myself.

I hate when that happens.

Anyway, when I looked around the shop, I was all alone, so I have no one else to blame it on, not even the shop kitty. I lost my focus for a partial second in my 'rush' to get the project finished.

This is in the same vein as in last December when I was clearing broken branches from the winter storms out of my trees. I fell about 8 feet off a broken branch stub and dislocated several ribs when I hit.

Anyway, take a moment and think before you do something risky. There's a safe way available, and even though it may take a bit longer to finish... well, you've heard this all before, but sometimes pictures do better than mere words.

Cheers,
