Good work.If you've got a chainsaw, sell it quick!
And lo, I did loft the front wheel and carried it forth to the unbelievers, and cast it down before them and said unto them ''look now upon the might of my throttle control ye pitiful cretinous ones''
And the unbelievers did quake in their boots....

Not funny, I almost dismeboweled myself Saturday with a 4 1/2" grinder that kicked back... :| I was in such a position that I couldn't move and was really close to the work.  I won't do that again!

Ouch!
There was a kid recently up at the college metal shop that was grinding on the bench...

The grinder got away from him and tore half his face off.

Once I was grinding something at work. I had the grinder in one hand and the piece of material in the other hand. My boss came up to me saying put that in a vice so you can hold the grinder with 2 hands, if it grabs you wont be abele to hold it. Well I didn?t listen and minutes later the grinder grabbed, it shot out of my hand and I grabbed on to the cord.  The grinder then swung around and cut open my shirt leaving a grinder burn out across my stomach.

De MxMan was the "first" salesman, this is one of those
who want's to get rich from Mxriders.

So it's not a mist bargen. (Wanted to let my real brother buy the beast.)
That is then a bit like this Kx500/KXF250 from 92( 94 and even 2000) wich
has been for 4 times on MP. Have looked for it once.
Man the guy know nothing about it.

I have done the same d**n thing only I was using a cutoff wheel to cut a slot in a piece of DP Aluminum to fit around the shifter in my 4X4. The wheel bound up and shot the piece right into my chin so hard that it knocked me out for a split second but not long enough to hit the ground. I was rocked back on my heels when I came back to with the grinder still going in my right hand. I thought I had gotten shocked or something until I looked at my left hand and the piece I was working on was gone. Then that weird half numb half throbbing and tingly feeling in my jaw hit me. It all happened so fast that it took me a minute to figure out what happened. Lesson learned.

It was a 4 1/2 inch air powered grinder with an 80 grit sanding disk that kicked back.
