I'm not sure why but it seems they dont allow you to link directly to their articles. If you search for DIY it's the first story.


To be fair, a few inches either side and it'd have been the femoral (sp?) artery and he'd have been a gawna

Does it?

The occasional finger maybe but I can't see how, drunk or not, he could have achieved this.

We could have a poll to see how many of us have managed to cut off a part of our anatomy in the course of our wood working and check the results to see how often this part has featured.

Well, yes, but I take it you didn't manage to remove that particular bit.

Maybe he confused a saw with a vacuum cleaner??

When my wife worked in A&E they used to frequently get some bloke "connected" to a vacuum cleaner nozzle.

So what do you all use for a straightedge then? Pisstool is much cheaper than Festool.

Or perhaps he is the "Wood Surgeon" I've seen reference to in the title (what size to ask for from a wood surgeon?) of another thread (I thought the poster meant Tree Surgeon but perhaps this explains it.)

yep my freind theresa (who's an A&E nurse) told me about a bloke who had got into the habit of regularly - ahem - "stimulating" himself with a random orbital sander, without the sanding pad on natch - then one day in a state of high arrousal he applied the ROS to himself without first removing the 80G pad and wound up needing an emergency circumcision :shock:

Maybe he just confused his wood with the wood. :lol:
