A few weeks ago, I was test running a .40 size aero engine clamped up hard (or so I thought) in a workmate. ****** thing came out of the clamps, engine, prop, fuel tank and went into my hand.
Result, half inch of right index finger left hanging by about 5 mm of skin, and big flap opened up like a meat slice off my thumb - lots of blood, 2 lines of splashed blood up the side of the wall, trip to hosp, temp repairs, sent home overnight, back next day for proper repairs under general anesthetic and sent home.
Much mickey taking by friends and family
Back to work as usual, not even getting any sick time off.
This will be good for getting a dig at scivers who take time off for a sniffle.
