I managed to saw off the end of my right pointy finger AND THE DARN TS WAS NOT EVEN RUNNING.
A few years ago Glenn managed to slice his hand on a TS that was not running. He used his hand to wipe some dust off of the TS top. The blade was not fully retracted below the top; it was up just a micro-bit.
Well I have always (until now) been very careful to not do that. Well I got the right hand pointy finger and its next door neighbor. I got it in the perfect location to get pulled open again every time I remove a tight jar lid, loosen a tight screw, etc. The pointy finger continued to drip blood for three days and nights. I have always been a non-bleeder so this is a new experience for me.
Well I finally got it to stop bleeding by wearing a bandage over the tip of the finger. This has raised absolute heck with my typing. It is amazing how many strange letters a bandage can hit on a keyboard.
Enjoy,
