Default Even a Dremel can be dangerous

Ha, I thought I was the only one to have drilled into myself! :spinnyeye:

Today I got in a rush. While drilling through a ball wrench tool mount, I Held the item with my hand instead of a vise and while trying to guide the 1/16 drill, the cheapo bit skipped around, right through a previously drilled hole, and into my left index finger joint.
Went through the skin, the bone stopped it, and the bit continued to run under my skin scraping right up next to the bone for about 1 1/4". Talk about hurtn like a b**ch!
