A post by drewnogal reminded me of an incident some years ago.
A carpenter was doing some work in my house when he shouted out
"Wolfie. Do you have a plaster?"
I ran to see what was the problem and he had shaved his knee
with an electric plane!
Ouch.
My partner drove him to hospital where he received 8 stitches
while I drove his van back to his missus and explained what had
happened.
I guess he was calling for a very large plaster!

@wolfgang59 saidThe guy must have been "plastered" to try shaving his knee with anything. 🤔

@wolfgang59 saidThis reminds me of when I had an idea of getting a chainsaw for cutting my logs - then I discovered the word kickback ... 😲 !

@wolfgang59 saidI take it a plaster is a bandage?

@drewnogal saidHeh, yes, a chainsaw, even the little ones, aren't the best tool for fine work, either. I found that out the hard way, too.

@mudfinger saidNo. Not a bandage.

I think Americans may call it a band-aid.

@suzianne saidI've seen some pretty good chainsaw art. Impressive what some people can do with a chainsaw.
I wouldn't call it art, exactly. 😞
