[QUOTE="Mike6158, post: 344581, member: 1039"] I'm going to print that out and put it on the wall behind the machine if I get one... Good stuff. A long time ago, like when I was 13 or so (51 now), when schools still had things like wood shop, I was showing another kid where to make his initial cuts on a little bat he was going to make out of wood. I had my hand on the tool rest, using my middle finger as a pointer (dumb, dumb, dumb ,dumb). The kid I was helping was a little slow. While I was showing him where to cut he got excited and turned the lathe on. My middle finger went in to the first knuckle and I pulled it back out, minus a lot of skin and the nail. I've had few things in my life that hurt that much and that long. I kept my finger and the nail grew back but I will never forget that particular dumb move. Thanks for your help and guidance.
