I’m confident that my report would come back as the carnie sidekick in the knife throwing act that who is bound to the spinning platform where the knives are thrown. Vic, I checked out your flickr link and wow! I’ve seen many a shop tour but your shop will take the cake when completed. Unbelievable space… flooring just perfect! I’m jealous!!

Even though I know I should wear my leather gloves when handling my router bits, I never do. My wife says she can tell whether I've been doing any work, or not, by how many fresh scars there are on my hands. Lately, my hands have been perfect. Time to get them dinged up!

I'll be much more cautious myself going forward. These bits are really snugged up in the sockets and take some force to remove which is no problem for the larger bits. But the smaller bits such as the 1/4 straight bit are difficult to get a grip on a non-cutting edge. I was a little annoyed with how seemingly over-snugged up the bits were until I remembered that I had returned the previous set as one of the bits had come loose during shipping. It was clear from many dings in the case that the bit had been bouncing around and of course bits contacting other bits is a very bad thing for cutting edges. So I guess there's some justification there for the snugness... however I still think they could make less snug fittings and ship the bits in plastic envelopes (like Rockler does). As it stands now I can't help but think it's a safety issue for at least the less intelligent human beings such as myself.... and I have a sore finger to prove it!
