My most dangerous tool is my imagination.  Every time I have an idle
minute, I start thinking of stuff I can do to "Improve" my vehicles.  It
always seems to end up costing me a lot of money!  :)

I've got a shop full of power tools from a radial arm saw to a band saw,
drill press, lathe etc and got to thinking about what is the most
dangerous
tool I own. Lately I've spent a lot of time working on the TR6, cutting
and
grinding in fairly tight areas and decided to give the most dangerous
tool
award to my angle grinder armed with a cut off wheel. Even when using it
on
metal clamped in a vise, it "scares" me. Noise, sparks, gobs of torque,
blade keeps spinning after turning it off etc... Luckily it doesn't
"kick
back" like a circular saw or chain saw but it sure commands my full
attention 100% of the time.
 
What's your most dangerous tool?..... and yes I understand that it's the
user that makes tools dangerous :-)
