I know how to use'em, too! And I can tell you all the things they can do that you don't intend on them doing, like quickly spinning up any loose clothing, throwing off the little wires (which when working with metal are red hot little buggers) that land on your skin, how they can grab and cause the drill to move suddenly to a new "project" (if it wasn't, it will be) and how those nasty little wires will poke nice little holes in your fingers like a cactus even when they aren't spinning -- like when they are laying on the bench or in the tool box and you hit it reaching for something else (particlularly nasty to take one up between the finger and finger nail about a quarter of an inch). And, yes, they can give you new fingerprint patterns or completely remove your fingerprints. They also like to grab loose string (and shoe laces) and wire. --RJ-- |

Kinda sounds like to me Mac, that you need to stay away from moving tools-especially wire brushes!

Oh, did I make it sound like I knew these things from personal experience?
Well, they didn't all happen in one instance, anyway . . . --RJ--
