No, didn't cut off a finger lol I was getting ready to try laminating a cabinet for the first time. Got the game side ready to go, roughly traced it onto the back of black formica. I got the shape cut out, and was getting out a screwdriver to open up the contact cement.
Then i notice on the lid in big letters "TURN OFF THE MAIN GAS VALVE" heh.. my gas water heater is in the garage.. about 5 feet away from my assembly table. I heat my shop with a ventless gas heater. guess i didn't know the vapor off that is really flammable, and it goes right down to the floor..

I got a feeling if i wouldn't have been paying attention, i might have ended up bald. Looks like i have to laminate the cabinet outside. But it's raining today, raining tomorrow, then a cold front and tuesday is 39. I am so screwed.
