I chopped off a thump twenty years ago wearing a soggy glove on a circular saw - never wear any jewellery, it can get lost or eaten in machinery. Always wore a watch tho.

 

Hope you heal quick,

 

Best regards.

I had a aussie work for me once and he had a stainless steel ring that was made to take bottle tops off. I told him all morning to take the thing off but h didnt. Mid morning whilst loading the truck up he jumped off the back of the the truck and swang on the greedy boards any way the ring caught and he wasn't tall enuf for his feet to touch the ground and de gloved his fingure to just below his knuckle. he nearley needed plastic surgery.
