What krue said...
I'm not sure if its dangerous, but I'm always afraid that the cutoff wheel in the big electric die grinder is going to grenade and embed parts of itself in my forehead. It sure cuts better than the girlie air powered ones, though.

my wife is pretty helpful around the shop.She even wanted me to teach her to weld which I did and she was a natural
I vote for grinders as most dangerous.

I dont know if you guys would consider a razor blade a tool, but I have had to get stiches twice because of those things.

Id have to say that im the most dangerous tool in my shop. Any tool i have, whether its a socket or a gas torch, i can make it dangerous.

I still have my fingers though.... My cut off wheel tried to take one the other day, but i got it back.

The cab of my truck,,,,,not sure if its a tool or not.

2 trips to the ER
14 stitches the first time and 13 the second

Guess I would be the most dangerous.

Well, I would have to say, the electric cut off grinder. I have had my fair share of nicks with that thing. And i use gloves while using that thing, before you know it slices right threw and into the fingers.

The hammer, because I know it can fix anything, but you only get one try.

anyone that has a 2-ton japan made jack should put it at the top of their list. the japanese send them over to kill us to get us back for WWII.
