NEVER, EVER have a chisel in each hand...one at a time at all times. That is what happened to me, wasting out some rough corners. Had a 1/4 inch shallow palm gouge in one hand and a big 1 1/2 incher in the other. You take for granted how many times your hands cross each other doing anything. Pulled the small chisel out of a groove, swung up, and BAM.. deep into index finger..Did you know human fat looks just like chicken fat? |
