Lathe accident **ABSOLUTELY NWS!!!!**

[Guest]

Damn. I always try to be very careful when I am working on the lathe. I didn't think it would completely destroy you like that....

Thats about the worst thing I've ever seen. Probably wearing a long sleeve shirt and got pulled in, that poor guy.

No kidding.. How would you like to be the poor SOB that had to clean up that mess!

they have people that make a GOOD living doing that.

this is too gross....... safty is important but do we need too see an accident?

"Too gross" is a matter of opinion really. It doesn't really bother me one bit to look at those pics. If I saw it in person, different story definitely!

I think a good "shock" is good for a person every now and then when it comes to being safe around heavy machinery. In fact, Pool Boy and I both told our maintenance man at work about the pictures since there is a lathe there and he said that most of our maintenance crew is probably too lax when it comes to using it. He told me I should email the pictures to the maintenance foreman and they're probably going to be posted above the lathe as a reminder.

I agree its good to see some stuff like this once in awhile, kind of a reminder that stuff like this does happen if not being careful. Just not a good idea to look at this stuff right before you go to bed!

I work with this stuff everyday and you can never be too careful, the minute you snooze you lose ( a finger or some other part of your body). IMO they are a little gruesome but they tell a hell of a story.

It is tough to see. You hear about it over the years, but seeing it sticks in your head when you're working.

A picture is worth a thousand words.
