Members thor653 Posted March 26, 2006 Members Share Posted March 26, 2006 Originally posted by zachary vex a few. two notable shop accidents: i wasn't looking and picked up the soldering iron by the hot tip once. that left a white-ash burn on my index finger and thumb that took months to heal.the other was a dremel tool loaded with a pc board bit... got away from me and plunged into my thigh, snapping off the bit about 3/4" long under my skin. that was rather disconcerting to remove with tweezers and lots of pressure. doing surgery on yourself is eerie, and compounded by being pantsless. WTF!??OUCH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members analogmike Posted March 26, 2006 Members Share Posted March 26, 2006 I rarely solder anymore but still manage to burn myself... last time I was teaching something to two of my guys, and put my hand down right on top of his soldering iron. 3" long burn on my palm. Went through a bottle of aloe while it healed... be careful and respect your iron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
