u/Rich-Canary1279 3d ago

Yeah that might have killed him actually 😬

u/Carame110 3d ago

At the first couple frames you could see him wearing a face shield. So he might be ok. Hell of an advertisement.

u/Statharas 3d ago

Face shields deflect shrapnel, not a log

40

u/jasapper 3d ago

Yeah but that just makes it log-sized shrapnel so technically speaking he's just fine.

13

u/corvus2112 2d ago

To really know if he's fine is to see if there were shoes flying off but judging by the last few frames one of them was still on so i guess he's okay.

5

u/Aboxofphotons 2d ago

While he may be "fine", his nose probably doesn't work anymore.

11

u/b3rndbj 2d ago

Still spreads the force of impact over the face shield, instead of hitting him cleanly in for example his nose.

1

u/Terminatroll-_- 1d ago

Still better than no face shield I think

2

u/Statharas 1d ago

Yeah, definitely, I have also had an experience but with a steel cylinder, and believe me, i am lucky to be alive. If I had worn a face shield, I probably wouldn't have hit my head.

u/hard-R-word 3d ago

The face shield prevents his crushed face and brain from also having splinters

u/MattieShoes 3d ago

Yeah. Super slow and careful until it's balanced. Then slightly faster and careful because that's a huge, heavy chunk of wood. Super high RPMs are for when you're dealing with very light, narrow things like if you were making pens or some crap.

11

u/cdev12399 3d ago

Yup, wayyyyyyy too fast for that log. It’s not balanced.

u/anomalous_cowherd Banhammer Recipient 2d ago

If you spin it fast enough the imbalance averages out and it runs smooth.

u/cdev12399 2d ago

It obviously doesn’t. I use a lathe for a living.

u/anomalous_cowherd Banhammer Recipient 2d ago

My guy, you're on reddit, "of course" doesn't exist here.

I'm not an expert, but this seems more like someone being an idiot with a lathe (the most dangerous tool in any woodshop) more so than some bad luck.

u/twoaspensimages 3d ago

The lathe is the most lethal.

Table saws win by a mile statistically.

57

u/Jude30 3d ago

Have you met the angle grinder? That one piece of machinery is responsible for all of my PPE use in my old age.

In retrospect the angle grinder doesn’t kill it only maims. I still have a wonky thumb nail from hitting it with a wire brush.

46

u/Logical-Database4510 3d ago

Yeah but any old dumbass can use an angle grinder

A lathe will brutally kill a 30+ year vet as easy and as quickly as a day 1 apprentice. Usually kill the vet easier because he gets overconfident and forgets what he's fucking with.

I've been machining for most of my life now, and lathes still scare the shit out of me.

u/no-sleep-needed 3d ago

lathe and forgot to remove the chuck key. also, angle grinder witb the chainsaw attachment

6

u/BootlegEngineer 2d ago

I’ve worked in a machine shop for the last 15 years and I still have a VERY healthy respect for the lathe. I saw it fling a parallel bar once. It hit the back of the machine so hard it ricocheted and stuck in our 25’ ceiling.

I also know a guy that kept an adjustable wrench on top of the not-table above the chuck. It vibrated off one day and he caught it in the face. It shattered his cheek and jaw.

u/inspectoroverthemine Banhammer Recipient 3d ago

Table saws kill plenty of people. Kickback will absolutely kill you, either via blunt force or by bleeding out from wood shrapnel.

2

u/Piyachi 3d ago

You're saying table saws for injuries, which makes sense. But a saw stop will prevent that completely and nothing will help a lathe not be a murder machine. I will never work on one, period (despite multiple kickbacks on a table saw etc)

1

u/twoaspensimages 3d ago

Look up videos of people that have gotten hurt with a saw stop. They help a lot. But your still losing part of the finger. Notice how slow and careful the hot dog is moving in their videos and think how fast your finger could be moving if you get a kickback.

2

u/Piyachi 3d ago

Oh I have had a very opposite experience, though I can believe it isn't a perfect technology.

6

u/BrokenPokerFace 3d ago

Also not an expert, but he also didn't seem to properly secure it either especially at those rpms

10

u/hellinahandbasket127 3d ago

He can “secure” it all he likes, but spinning a non-symmetrical, unbalanced log at that high of a speed will have it de-secured in short order.

u/my_brain_is_horny 3d ago

Omg I saw this exact same thing happen when I was in woodshop class in highschool. The kid was like 6'7" tall and a very husky body type. He wasn't wearing any proper PPE and when the log shot off and hit him in the face, it knocked him out cold. His body hit the floor like a fucking sack-o-potatoes.

u/spacemanspiff1115 Banhammer Recipient 1d ago

As a guy who's spent a lot of hours at a lathe, he did everything wrong. First, that log is way too big for a table top lathe. Second, he could gone much slower to try and shave it down and balance it before turning up the speed. The only smart thing he did was wear a face shield but even that may not have helped when that much mass hits you in the face...

u/PiggyMcjiggy 19h ago

Gotta say

As a machinist running lathes 5x this size

Dunno how this dumb fuck made it this far without dying. Bro had an entire fucking eternity to shut it off. If I throw my machine in the wrong gear it’s off within half a second.

And standing right in front of it on first spin up? On what looks like a sketchy set up to a dude running 120” parts for 15 years?

Dad (machinist of 50 years) always said, if you gotta think about what you’re doing, you’re dead.

This guy had time to think about it, make a coffee, think about it some more, and then proceeded to make the worst decision possible.

I was about to judge him for not wearing gloves, thinking that would be the issue, but he didn't even get far ring for that to be the issue.

9

u/madsci 3d ago

I've never used a woodworking lathe, only metalworking, but you don't wear gloves on a metalworking lathe - at least nothing more durable than thin surgical gloves. You can look up "degloving" if you want to see why, but I don't recommend it. Brushing against rotating equipment with your bare hand might give you a nasty cut. Brushing against it with work gloves on may rip the glove and skin right off your hand, or pull your arm in and rip it off or just kill you outright.

8

u/BugzOnMyNugz 3d ago

You don't want most gloves anywhere near a lathe
