Tee Dee Finger

Finally got the 051 to run yesterday so got a bit cocky today
and started an 020 without starter spring.
I now have 2 nice red slices on index finger tip, one all the way
down to the nail.
They say love hurts.
lol!

Little props swing around quick! I haven't done that myself yet although I am sure it's only a matter of time!

Hope you heal quickly, time to get some springs..........

Yup, APC's or Masterairscrewya's cut reaaly fast, and it doesen't have to be sharp to break the skin, which is worse, because it is a hack tear instead of a cut.
