Gmerrill0516 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Yuck! Nasty wound. Rotating equipment is dangerous. I have two sweatshirts with 5" tears at about the middle of my gut. Luckily the shirt wound up enough and the wheel didn't grab so that it cut into my belly. I did have to check to make sure the second time. Scared the hell out of me. I've got a grease tattoo on my left ring finger from the last time I hooked it with a flap wheel...that got infected a bit and I had to soak the crap out of it to keep it open for a few days and let the gunk out...making myself use leather gloves and guards more often. Safety glasses, rubber gloves, cut gloves etc. etc. Work safe men! Take time and don't take chances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
