Just thought I'd post that copious use of my router table and router resulted in only "damage" to the wood I was working on!

I thought we could all use a post like this! :)

Good job Chris!! I think we could use the occasional good news in this area. Way too many people gettin' hurt these days.

Good on you Chris! Now, just continue to keep it that way! (The previous sentence is for everybody.)

Wow talk about a way to jinx yourself :)

Great job so far!

Reminds me of when I worked in a factory and they had a board when you walked in the door announcing how many days accident free. It was reassuring to see first shift going twenty or thirty days between accidents but unnerving to see that third shift never made it out of the single digits!

Another reminder for me to quit when I get tired.

Didn't know you used those tools, I thought you just collected them. :p

I'm really happy you made it safely, but as a leader of the picture police you know without a picture it didn't happen.

Well no accidents here for quite a long time.
But I think I had a bad omen last night, as to how this week will go.
I was turning a new handle for a Charles Buck socket chisel.
It started raining, and I have an ocasional roof leak when the winds blows hard. Water started dripping onto the 4-bulb lamp above my 36" lathe, splashing onto my head.
Only leak in the whole shop, and it was dripping on me head. Lol

Yea. Think I better be on the lookout this week for strange happenings.
Just snapped a pic of the chisel with new handle, posted it in handtool forum. Heard something fall and hit the floor in shop.
Went to see what it was. It was the chisel. Rolled off the bench and hit the floor. Ugh:(
