This should be higher! And BP should be inspired, to stop censoring!

I have no idea how some people passed driver's ed.

Luckily, you can still operate a lathe with only one arm.

I also own a lathe. The image of my arm slapping me made me laugh hard.

It will give you a nasty turn.

That, right there, is a thing of beauty. Absolutely solid and will outlast every one of us, going on to slap even more unsuspecting users with their own hand generations from now.

Yes, but it will outlast the eventual destruction of the Earth. Just rubble and these lathes floating in the vacuum of space...maybe a couple Twinkies...

Not a 56-inch lathe. That's about a 6-inch lathe. The size is measured from the center of the chuck to the bed. No jewelry and no loose clothing if you must...

Not to mention older farm equipment. My Dad once tried to unjam a corn picker without stopping the tractor's Power Take-Off first...

Bandsaws. When that long, thin, jagged, whirring piece of metal snaps... I owned all sorts of power tools that, handled improperly, became dangerous, but a bandsaw - you just don't know.

Don't google "Russian Lathe".

This is true of any lathe. Most tools are potentially dangerous if misused - from my chain saw to my kitchen knives or even a hammer.

How about the 1938 model ?

Lol I laughed way too hard at that description 😂

Any object is dangerous is someone is stupid enough to ignore it's proper use.

These kinds of vets are f*****g angels

I upvote this collection

Stupid thing ate my finger tip. If you ever find a body with 9.2 finger prints:it could be me

Dint mess with them!

Well, I have a gas stove and a miter saw.

Should this be in the CIA post instead? 😬

Don't mix cleaning products!

The leading causes of household deaths are poisonings, and large life insurance policies.

Never try to cut a liquor bottle with one of these saws because the gin is miter than the board.

I choose death by bacon please.

Any gas stove that doesn't have a cut-out if there's no flame needs consigning to the waste heap. Such a basic safety requirement has been in place for decades.

"What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is." Vice President Dan Quayle.

LEGO. It's a mass noun. A box of Lego, a Lego brick.

How has no one said guns yet or is that just a USA thing

Diabetes and sugar are also dangerous.

They're not the breed you have to watch out for. They CAN be aggressive if poorly socialized/poorly trained, and obviously yes, they can be trained to do bitework/schutzhund. But they're herding/shepherd dogs at their core (similar to GSDs.) They're not the breed with the highest fatal bite/attack rate out there. I have a Malinois, and yes, he's 50 lbs of pure muscle. But with good socialization and training, I'd trust him around a child. There are other breeds that I wouldn't.

Isn't the Internet already free because what I pay AT&T for is the use and maintenance of their equipment?

I had to look that up! It's deadly due to the risk of rollovers...much more so than the slightly smaller Yukon.

I give up, using it for a bludgeon?
