I did something similar with a soldering iron as a teen. Working on my layout in the garage, leaned back and heard a sizzle. No pain at all but a scar shaped like the tip and ceramic part of the iron in my arm. A band aid and good as new.

Scotie, You had an excuse, you were young.  I had been an electronics technician for 15 years by that point!!  I had no excuse! 

Arnold, Mark, Scottie, et al,

You guys are waayyyyy too much fun!!!  Best laugh I've had in quite awhile!

Keep up the GREAT work!!!     

Arnold,

At first glance, I thought your first picture was of your attic - occupied by a large, dead vine.

I once dropped drill still slowing down, INTO my foot top, between the bones all the way thru.... 3/16.... didn't hurt once the drill wasn't leaning 

....and I had to pull it out 

I'm soo glad the drill had reverse  

Not as bad as you'd think.

I also sliced my wrist on a gearshift hole, right across; played "bloody-Spiderman" on the windshield..... didn't hurt for weeks.

Shock is your buddy sometimes; not just Frankenstein's

(I have an AF 18b,  same case, no meters... drives my modern whistle/bells nuts with random dc offset ;I think it's a dissimilar metal thing in the handles. Still an awesome transformer, maybe one of the "funnest evva" with the Deadman handles.)

Adriatic - I use surgeon scalpels and blades for scoring and cutting styrene and cardboard.  When I was first using these in place of the Exacto blades I accidentally dropped one. It hit my leg, bounced on the floor and broke the blade.  As I reached down to pick it up I suddenly realized my new pair of blue jeans had a long smooth sliced opening that ran down most of the lower trouser leg which hadn't been there when I put them on that morning.  Fortunately, that was all that was cut. My wife was none too pleased about the damage to the new pair of jeans...but that's another story.

Piker.  At least YOUR wiring is UNDER the layout!

Joe looked forward to his long fishing vacation in High Falls Gorge.

But..... it may not be as long as he liked! Even the two wolves on the ledge can't believe his choice of fishing spot!

Arnold,

I love this photo. Nothing better than a bottle of smoke pellets sharing a plastic cup with (Is that a bottle of ?) prescription Prozac. I quit smoking chewing on smoke pellets and needed Prozac after wiring my layout. Looked just like yours.

No prozac, Mack, that is an old bottle of K Line smoke pellets.

Boy, that fire hydrant must stink!
