A cautionary tale. Warning (very graphic photo)

After seeing the initial image and reading the posts, I decided that I would err on the side of caution in a recent project.

I needed to cut a brick and thought I would/could use a tabletop tile saw I'd picked up in a garage sale some time ago. it might have worked to easily score the brick, or it might have not.  But that first image was scary... and I like my fingers.

So I went with Plan B and opted to use wooden blocks faced with easily cut brick veneer.  Thanks Billethead.

               Thanks Keith,

   This post was to jog our memories to think twice just as you did. I am to the point now I think three to four times now.

Wow, that was really bad. I liked the after surgery pics better. Glad to see you back out there fishing, nice hybrid.

Marty, I'm sorry I'm just now reading this.  Hope this is behind you and there were no lasting repercussions.
