My Damn World

This will be short and sweet. As a result of my own stupidity, I now have a finger that looks like a twice-baked potato of meat at the end! My finger was rudely and suddenly introduced into a 25,000rpm router bit. The reason was my stupidity of feeding the end of the workpiece from directly above the bit. Now, you purists will no doubt admonish me for not using a push-stick. A push-stick would not have been possible to use due to the shape of the piece. However, had I simply moved my finger to the other side of the router-table and piece, the piece could have spun as it did and I would have been fine. So, in conclusion, never, ever place any part of your body directly above any cutting tool whether it be a router or a table-saw or any other cutting device! It's not worth it!
