Re: Machine Shop "Accidents"
Worst thing to happen during build season was that one of our members was drilling a bigger hole for a battery wire and it got caught on the drill and cut his hand. Nothing a band-aid or two couldn't fix.
The worst thing to happen to my in our lab was I was working on a project for class and I was holding down a block of wood so someone could put a screw in. The drill came off of the screw when it was all the way down, and the screw bit started drilling into my finger. After a trip to the nurse and some confusion over the last time I had gotten a tetanus shot, it was deemed that I would be OK, and just have to wear a bandage on my finger for a bit while it healed.
