Thought I'd post this to my fellow wood workers to be ever vigilant. For once a tool didn't get me. A metal storage cabinet bit me.
I keep my surface planer stored in a Craftsman tool box with wheels. On top of the box there is a home built grinder station. I had to pull the box further off the wall to install a Wolverine grinder attachment for my lathe tools. The lathe sits directly opposite the grinder station. This is one of two metal cabinets in the shop. The other is storage for flammable materials. The rest of the cabinets in the shop are home built.
I was pulling out the planer when the door hit the lathe, trapping my right hand between the door and the planner. By the time I got my hand free I had a "U" shaped flap cut in the back of it that took 7 stitches to close.
I'm now under doctor's orders to stay out of the shop for two days. Time I may use thinking about replacing a metal cabinet.
