Brain Fade.
Made a tapping handle to suit my new el cheapo drill press.
Tried it out, tapped several holes really happy with results.
Then BRAIN FADE! I switched it on. I dont know why, I just did.
Hasty step back instant cold sweat then watched in slow motion
as my hand went out to grasp the revolving handles. IT HURT LOTS
I was lucky it was a slap across the palm, it could have been broken knuckles.
Two lessons learnt,
1. BE ALERT.
2. ALWAYS PULL THE PLUG WHEN USING POWERED MACHINES
WITH HAND POWER.
