Im stupid.
There is no other word for it.
I was working on the palm rests I know some of you are waiting for.
Well 3 have been cut and were ready to have the chamfer added to the front.
This is done with a router.
I have my router mounted upside down under the desk and the chamfer bit sticks up through a hole.
I had just put a new one in and tightened the chuck.
Im cutting away and it flies out of the router!
This is an inch across piece of steel with a cutting blade on either side.
Still spinning in the air it cuts into my face just to the side of my eye.
I am so lucky it did not go in it as it would have gone through the eyelid and into the eye for sure.
I will from now on wear goggles at all times.
No exception!
There may be a delay on the rests until I have sorted out the router.
Its a dewalt which are normally very good.
Looking at the messy cut and the scorch mark I think it could have been in crooked but I am not sure how.
