As an addendum, am able to add that if you do slightly graze yourself with a metal grinding disc, just on a thumb knuckle, for example, it’s possoble the wound will be self cauterising. Ow ow ow.

Ouch. Still at least you haven't damaged a perfectly good glove.

digging a thumb out of the gap between guard and disc is best done in a timely manner, jerky in the moving parts will invalidate the guarantee.

re good gloves

well fitting ( try various sorts to see which are a best match for your paws )
easy to manipulate things large or small ( buttons switches etc ? )
gel padding against vibration on the inside
anti-cut/stab/abrade padding and armour on the outside
grip patches on the inside
armour for radials/wrists ( v important for grinder gloves )

about £20 usually,

DS doesn't appear to be accepting pictures right now, else I could show you how minor it really is.

We're all comforted to know you didn't damage the disc.

Would be a waste of a good disc.

I've been using my nose to type for the last 24 hours.

Got a Ryobi cordless angle grinder with a Saw blade attachment a few months ago, luckily our Sean seems to have the common sense to be too scared to use it, otherwise limbs would be flying everywhere.
