    been away a while, got several cool car projects, a buddys bought another g bodie race car and v-8 s10
    then last tuesday i had a part kick out of a table
    saw at work and got my hand. beat up all my fingers a little but messed my left middle bad, around 40 stitches is what the nurse said and broken in two places. a specialist got the bone back together but it will take a while to heal up. not trying to wine about it just letting you all know cant wait to get going again

                  Sorry you got hurt. Sounds like you still have all your parts if I understand correctly. Had a few close ones at work the could have eliminated a few digits.......scary stuff. Most scary before you look to see what is left. Heal quick. Do the therapy, when they say your ready for it. Can make a big difference in range of motion.

                    Glad you came out of that with all your appendages Cobey-that's scary stuff.

                    I hate cabinet saws. I've had them throw a 90lb. sheet of melamine at me because I got it a little cockeyed on the way through. I used a contractor saw in my cabinet shop-they'll cut sheet goods just fine, but if you get it a little sideways it will just stop the blade. If you need more power than a contractor has saw then you're using the wrong tool.
