I glued my head to my shoulder. 

Recently? 

When I was an apprentice (toolmaker) a bloke I worked with was on a lathe and had a glove on, feeding swarf off into a bin. The glove got tangled and pulled in. It ringbarked 2 of his fingies.  He ended up losing one of them completely, and the other one partially.

Google "degloved finger" if you're game. 

Btw. rings off when working on anything!

I've never worn my wedding ring for that reason.

Had a metal watch band fuse on an alternator terminal one day. Blew the hinge off the watch and left two small burn marks on either side of my wrist.

Obviously a Bosch, a Lucas would struggle to do that.
