Thanks I was using one of those working on a finger hold and the drum caught the knife and it hit the blade and cut the tape I had on it. next time it caught it pressed my finger into the blade and I ended up with 3 stitches it cut me right in the crease on the end of my index finger any where else and I would just have taped it closed and went on working but every time I got the bleeding stopped and started working again it started bleeding again.
Long story short I went out last week and bought a rigid spindle sander it sure gives you more control.
Thanks
