When I get some extra epoxy from a wing I pour some of the excess into the cup, thus keeping things safe to throw away when it gets full.

Re: [RCSE] Don't do this
Gee, I did the exact same thing only deeper, and had to have the nerve spliced. I got to hospital at 9:20 am and didn't see the hand doctor till 6 pm. They stitched it temporarily and then had to re open it. At least I know I am in good company.

RE: [RCSE] Don't do this
Don't bash your instincts, you're suppose to grab the handle silly. You were just to fixated on the blade. I'll tell you about dumb instincts and what not to do: when an xacto falls in between your legs, don't smash your thighs together, spread 'em! Rick I had just installed a new blade in my X-acto #2 holder. After a few cuts I sat it on the bench, and it began to roll. The first thing that went throught my mind was, oh no, it will hit the hard floor and break the tip of the new blade, as I instinctively reached out to catch it. Instincts aren't always smart. Ouch!

RE: [RCSE] Don't do this
I have put most of my blade holders in a vise and bent them a little so they can not roll..Fits my chubby little hand better too...Brian Smith _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

RE: [RCSE] Don't do this (But do this)
Slide a piece of rubber tubing, latex, over the handle. Cover the coupling and it also helps keep it from loosening up. Gives a better grip as well. Steve Meyer http://SOARchicago.com/stmeyer/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] S.O.A.R. Web Page http://SOARchicago.com/
RE: [RCSE] Don't do this
Or even better. When an soldering iron falls between you´re legs. And you sit in you´re shorts, beacause it´s hot outside. Do NOT smash the legs together. It does hurt.

RE: [RCSE] Don't do this
my new favorite injury always occurs when cutting monokote along a straight edge I am almost assured that the blade will hop up the straight edge, take a chunk of my index finger (what I now call 'the chunk'), and leave me with a beveled finger Only thing that saves me is that I play guitar - mostly i am just taking callous it DOES tend to slow down on my practicing (and sometimes makes me dizzy). brent RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
