I was getting my timing cover prepped, wire wheeling some bolts, got careless and the grinding wheel side of my benchtop grinder grabbed my index finger and pulled it in...to the point of stopping the grinder ...chewed my finger up nicely...very painful and stupid..2nd visit to the Saturday doctor since last November....i need to be more careful
