Stupid mistake nearly went very bad

[gibbon]

Lazy? Or just over tired? I tend to try and cut corners when I,m overly tired.

 

Lazy. It was before lunch and I have had an easy week so far. I think when your learning or doing something out of the ordinary you pay more attention. If you are doing something you do all the time its easier to get sloppy.

Glad your ok mate!! Just goes to show, Not matter how experienced or comfortable any of us feel you gotta keep your witts about you!!!

Split.

 

Ahh. Once, when that happened to me (because I was cutting a heavy head leaner with a DULL saw) I had to slice through my lanyard. My lifeline saved me and I learned a valuable lesson that day.

Thats one of the reasons I don't use a steel strop/lanyard.

In the interest of honest yesterday i got lazy for the first time ever i used earmuffs and not my helmet whilst using the chipper and a piece of wood shot back and split my head open im now sporting a 1 1/2 inch slice from the top of my eye to my forehead which will leave a scar to remind me what a lazy **** i was.

 

So as we all know wear your visors at all times no exceptions or as like me you may end up with a scar or worse you could loose your sight.

 

We all make mistakes maybe get tired and a little lazy but thats when your learn a lesson. Im gutted believe me its nothing major but the pure idiotic lazyiness of it is annoying.

 

BE SAFE.
