2 days after i got home from rumble last winter i got my sweat shirt caught in the spindle of the 60hp cnc boring mill i was running. Been a machinist for 15 years. Should have known better. The owner of the company said he had seen something like that 2 other times. First time the guy lost his arm. The next guy bled to death waiting for help. From time to time the nerves in my right arm get to hurting bad, but at least i can hold a wheel with both hands still. On a funny note of it i picked up a nick name in the shop. The naked machinist! Almost have to laugh about it now. If i dont it scares me too much!
