--- Quote from: CthulhuLuke on April 20, 2003, 12:05:02 am ---While working with my laminate CP, I made the smart move of not sanding the edges of any of the parts I was resting my arm on, so I slid the bottom of my wrist over one of them, bled for a bit, then did it on the other wrist, hah, it was a really sharp and clean cut though so it healed really fast. I've had plenty of things fall on me, nothing breaking anything, but hitting my head on my CP when getting up quick SUCKS! Lots of burns from soldering as well. --- End quote --- ha.. i've had quite a few stuk my head in the coin door and banged it on the way out/up... I got cut on the sheet metal of my PC case and on the metal corner of my monitor (a good gouge too... took forever to heal) *shrug* rampy |

I was bending over to insert a coin and poked both of my eyes out on my Wico ball-top robotron setup. Luckily the balls on top of the sticks came off their shafts when I stood up so most people don't even notice. |

I'm pretty careful around power tools... safety goggles, etc. However, I was working in the garage on a hot summer night with open toed shoes and went to move the cabinet that was laying on it's side (sanding, etc.) As I lifted the cabinet, the bottom edge caught my big toenail on my right foot. As I wrenched the cabinet off the floor, it bent my toenail backwards. I hopped around the garage for a couple of minutes before I even looked at my toe. I was sure I had ripped my toenail off. Minor injury, but major pain (literally) Rocky |

not working on a cab, but i got a nasty electric shock; about 5 years ago i was working on the computer (music essay for school) and needed to plug the printer in, so i crawled under the desk to get to the socket, but it was a dodgy plug (for those of you not in the uk, we have 3 pins on or plugs, 2 of which should be half covered in plastic (nearest the plug) so you can't touch them while plugging in - this one didn't, and was quite a small plug) anywho, i don't remember anything after crawling under the desk - my parents said they heard a bang (which could of been my head hitting the underside of the desk) - they came into the room to find me spazzing out next thing i remember was coming round in the kitchen, feeling really spaced out, with my dad trying to stop me from falling over. ambulance came, and i spent the night in hospital, felt really sick and shaky (wanted to barf) but i havn't had a headache since! |

Huh, 30 years living in the UK and I never noticed those insulated bits on plugs... Man, I 've got to start paying more attention... |
