Using my mak today & whilst undoing a swivel the back of the bolt spun around catching the top of my left hand index finger.....one quick press of the trigger undone both the bolt & my fingernail....oucch
Fully off easy as that & fcuk is it throbbing now lolo
But i forgive it...it didnt mean to bite me ...just reminding me of the fact its a power tool & like any power tool needs to be handled correctly....gotta put a new section in the rams now lol;)
 
As my old charge hand used to say, gloved are for poofs and burglars
 
Watch your finger on the back of a sleeve the bolt spun on me I didn't do the nail but it hurt.
 
Ouch SP. Not nice. Hope you recver quick . Might make others a bit wary now.
 
27dg so all in light order trying to keep cool & Tbh with the torque involved it would have still happened ...but made me cry even more trying to get the glove off lol...my boy wanted to take a pic but i told him to fcuk right off & go get the 1st aid box lol

Yeh common knowledge with all users lol but this SW just took me by surprise lol
 
How many times has your spanner slipped of and hit you in the face or very nearly , i been whacked at least 3 times over the years like that , so i dont think IW are any more dangerous then a spanner if treated with respect,

:sick: sounds painful SP

Once or twice but let us never speak of it again.:embarrest:
 
Look on the bright side SP, this missus will be pleased now you've got a thicker digit..:D

Hope you recover soon pal.
 
press swivs problem solved southern :idea: a lad i wuked wid lost the end of his finger all be it a little bit because of a drop gate swivel. he was running down site in to the cabin getting cleand out and all he could say was it was his fingering finger :laugh::laugh::laugh:
 
Used my new iw today, heavy duty milwaukee. Your right john the manc, there a beast to use but first impression its better than my makita, a little heavier but will get used to it.
 
so day 2 saw me hit & bump it sooo many times i'm thinking of a couple of days at home watching jeremy kyle....
changed the dressing and this is wot a IW bite look like:(:(:(
