I was putting in way too many hours, 70-120/ week normally. crushed right wrist from a truck accident (bent the steering wheel out of shape about 8" in an F150). even put a 2 1/2" finishing nail through 3 fingers at once.Ģ crushed discs, numerous broken bones including a compound fracture of the foot and ankle. In 20 years I fell through 2 roofs, off 3, shot myself 20 odd times with air nailers. Why do you guys think I do more design work nowadays? now I round those out to prevent puncture. It was a good year until I was comfortable using a tablesaw.Ĭouple of years ago nearly put a push stick through my left hand. When a nerve is re-attaching there isn't much that will touch the pain. second only to spinal injuries, lots of nerves. works fine, just looks funny.įingers hurt when you damage them. I cut the middle finger on the other hand in half straight down from the tip of the finger through the joint. Feeling has come back but it has taken nearly 5 years. they fused it so that joint doesn't work. I've done it twice, Severed one thumb at the joint. nuther thing I just thot of.I keep two of those work bench thingies in there too-I dig those (have to have one to put tools & stuff on and one to stand on/sit on.

Will also pull 5000# but my hitch is just rated for 3000#.Edit to Add: Also have shopvac/cords etc. Good thing that minivan is rated for 3/4 ton though. I somehow manage to carry everything I need for complete remodel jobs (demo & frame through drywall and trim) in that VW minivan.Those photos show Bosch tablesaw & stand, Hitachi SCMS & stand, power handtool cart on wheels (planer, RAG, ROS, BS, Jigsaw, etc.), clamps, fasteners of all kinds, boombox, compressor & 4 nail guns, caulk & paint tools, 3 cordless drills & cordless CS, recipsaw, cabinet tools, coutertop tools, right angle drill, staplers, jigs.you name it it is in there & handy enough to get to.I usually also carry sawhorses and runners & drops. They are suprised when we point at the Volkswagon.I'll divert this hijack back to the van storage thread here is one of my posts about what I haul in that van: From: basswood Mar-19 2:07 pm When people see our jobsite setup, they wonder how all the gear arrived.
#Table saw cut fingers full size
It's nearly a full size van huh."Glad you like it.It is an oxymoron on wheels.a "large mini-van." I don't know if any other minivans can haul 4x8 sheets flat, maybe so-it is the only small van rated for 3/4 ton payloads.
