ArtMAME:

I just had my first stitches put in a week ago... 22 of them... on my head...

I was cutting a piece of plywood on my tablesaw,  then I bent down to turn off the power switch, when the plywood I just cut (16"x22") got caught in the blade and got flung directly at my skull...

OUCH!!!  :dizzy: :dizzy: :dizzy:

The corner of the plywood hit me right on the top of the head with enough force to open a gash that required 22 stitches.  Started bleeding profusely, took off my Tshirt and put it on my head to control the bleeding.  My wife took me to the medical center just 5 minutes away.

Now there is dried blood on my tablesaw, goggles, work bench, shop floor, and the piece of plywood I cut...  :-X

Guess I am lucky it was the top of my head and not my face... ;D
