I'm sure HFG meant it feciciously, but seriously,

Don't listen to anyone that says "guards are for pussies"..........That's bad advice. It may be more of a PITA to get things dones with the safety equipment on, but it can be done.

Your family will thank you for it.

Before I really understood how dangerous they really were, and how seriously injured people were I used to think as with most tools that the guards were for pussies. Or they were for people too stupid to know how to use a tool correctly.

But after seeing and hearing horror stories from people, my guards are on if at all possible.

i get the cold chills whenever i feel a cutting or wire wheel catches kinda makes your a$$ pucker up.


This is no BS!!! I've been hurt worse with my small grinder than my big one!

I think we tend to take the little critters for granted!

Cutting discs seems to be the MAIN issues for me followed by the Tigers!
