Final Score: Grinder-1 Me-0

i took the tip/chunk off my thumb with a polyfan flat disc once, lol.... and then last month at work i was doing some wire wheeling..... and the grinder is 11amps so its got some jam.. it kicked back and got me right int he balls then flew about 9ft... i was down for the count on that one... it hurt.

yah the angle grinder sucks, i hate that bitch, it scares me more than the torch, plasma, sawzall, welder, etc.

i hit myself in the face with the fork end of a hammer, it almost went through my top lip, it kinda hurt, and i caught my pants on fire welding

Had the same thing happen as joe grinder kicked back and my hand slid up and then the disc went through my nail up to my knuckle... my finger will never look the same again the grinder

I KINDA HAVE THE SAME EXPERIENCE EVERYTIME I USE A CUT OFF WHEEL -- I HAD ONE SHATTER ON ME DURING USE AND THAT WAS NOT FUN AT ALL -- I FEEL YOUR PAIN --- IF ANY OF YALL SEE ME WITH A CUTOFF WILL PLEASE BACK UP IM PRETTY DANGEROUS WITH ONE OF THOSE THINGS ... PEACE !!!!

bahahaha i love the grinder stories, heres my grinder story that explains it with one picture

my cousin was cuttin a sink hole in a slab of granite for a kitchen friday, and somthin happened and the sawblade came off and climbed up his face and into his ear and and some teeth came off and got lodged in his forearm.....

thats a good one, thank god i am not the only one that has done that, damn near cut my finger off twice know. both times grinding on the frame.

i guess ive been pretty lucky with a grinder just like niks and scratches (knock on wood) i usually do stupid shit like drop a frame on my foot ant break all my toes and shit like that

ya ive had sum bad experiences with a grinder myself..sure doesnt mix well with skin..lol..l8..
