What's the most dangerous tool in your shop?

[MrMarty51]

*I* am the most dangerous thing in my garage.

I really should wear a helmet while I am back there.

You beat Me toooit.
Nothing more dangerous in My garage than My ability to do stupid stuff.

I would have to say I'm the most dangerous tool in my shop

20 ton press scares me the most. when you start putting more pressure on something than you think you should have too and just being scared your going to grenade what ever it is so it explodes right into your dick.

death wheel can be scary but ours actually still have the guards on them so they are not that bad.

really i hurt myself doing something stupid with a tool more often than not. its not that the tools are dangerous its that im an idiot.

Yeah, that's a great one there. POW! And **** goes flying everywhere.... Lol. Not. Good.

Take your pick. Any tool in or not in my hand usually turns into the most dangerous. Always when I least expect it. My wife won't come near the garage. But she's always ready with a bandage and that 'look'.

I would hope that you were being funny there. From your past posts, I'm not so sure. If you said that around my 18 year old daughter, she would laugh at you, and just walk away.... Just a thought. Being tough, isn't about how tough you can talk....

it was part joke i kind of rather use grinders with guards but my work takes most of them off and my father being an ironworker said the guards are useless and that you cant fit a over sized wheel on(i hated useing over sized blades it always thought i would cut my self never did) and took all the guards off at the house well now that he is dead i cant ask were he put the guards, so now every grinder i use except at school has no guard and now that i am used to no guard i somewhat don't like it when i use a guarded grinder and the guard gets in the way of the blade

My 1912 Monarch Model A 14 x 42 Engine lathe would qualify as dangerous. Really Really prior to OSHA
It has a 4 speed Turner Uni-Drive mounted above the spindle cone pulley with a 5" wide leather belt driving the spindle. No guards at all. Only mildly safer than a cone pulley on the ceiling like the arrangement that originally drove the spindle.
As if an engine lathe needed more ways to damage you.

My Burke #4 Milling Machine has a nice open belt for errant fingers and loose clothing to get caught in too...
