|  Sanding Skin Went to the shop yesterday for the first time since well before Christmas. A friend gave me a box of cut-offs from a variety of exotic woods and I thought I'd make a set of custom grips for one of my target pistols. I bought this sander a while back and decided not to bolt it to the bench so I could move it around. Well...it moved!!! I learned that wood ain't all this little sander sands!!!

 |  Neal, Betty could have told you that isn't how you try and file your nails. Steve

| Ouch, Neal that looks like it was enough to actually stink up the shop. You make a good point about bolting equipment down, everything in my shop is bolted to a bench for a few reasons, one being the safety aspect.

| I've been bit a few times like that myself. My worst problem is when I am driving a screw with my power drill and the screw tips and the driver bit bites my thumb. OUCH!

|  Slow Learner If you take a look at the pink spot on the first joint of my thumb you'll see it's not the first encounter I've had with that little beast!! Just healed up from that one and wrecked again!!! Guess I'll bolt it down and wear finger protectors like Cathy Wise does. Maybe her last name is more than a coincidence!!

| Nothing some superglue and a spritz of accelerator won't fix!  Ouch, I hate it when that happens!

I use my bench-top belt sander with 180 grit paper to remove dried CA glue from my fingers. I just don't turn it on!

| Nice grips Neal, those little Ruger Mark IIs(?) are dandy guns for grouse. I think the blood letting may have been worth it.
