9 MOST OVERLOOKED DIY INJURIES! (Avoid These 9 Worst DIY Injuries/Accidents From Common Tools!)
Most people associate DIY accidents with circular saws and big power tools. But most DIY injuries and accidents come from common hand tools! This short video from The Honest Carpenter will show you the 9 worst and most-overlooked DIY injuries and accidents, and suggest some tool safety tips.
#9: LUMBER SLIDING--Don't let lumber slide through your hands or across your body. It can cause vicious splinters. Use firm handholds when handling lumber.
#8. HOT BLADE GRABBING--Metal blades and bits heat up quickly. Be careful handling them right after usage--they can burn you!
#7: DRILL BIT PUNCHING--Driving bits can punch through your free hand if they slip out of the head of a screw. Keep your free hand clear or braced on the tool!
#6: HAMMER SWING-THROUGH--Many times on job sites we need to swing hammers downwards. If your legs are in the way, you can easily hit your shin bones or knees with a hammer.
#5: DRILL WRIST TWISTING--1/2" drills are very powerful. When using large bits, keep both hands on the tool, and possibly use a handle attachment. Otherwise they can twist or even break your wrist.
#4: SCRAPING CARELESSLY: Scraping paint or rust or wood can cause splinters to get lodged in the tips of your fingers, knuckles, or under fingernails. Consider wearing gloves, and scrape in smaller strokes.
#3: STEPLADDER KICKOUT--Don't stand on stepladders sideways--they can kick out from under you. Aim them perpendicular to the wall, or lean them against the wall closed.
#2: SAWING TOO CLOSE TO YOUR HAND--Hand saws can leap out of their cut line easily. If your free hand is too close, the saw can pass right over your free hand. Clamp the board and keep your free hand clear.
#1: UTILITY KNIFE SLASHING--No tool causes more injuries than utility knives. Keep your free hand and body parts out of the way. Cut in lighter, shorter strokes. Free-swinging blades can hit any body part with force!
Thanks for watching! Please work safely, and follow tool safety instructions. Avoid these most overlooked / worst DIY injuries and accidents!
