I had a near miss the other day while nailing oak edging on a recently built workbench so I thought I would post a reminder. I was using 2" pneumatic finishing nails to secure the edging and had my left hand on the benchtop while nailing horizontally with my right hand. One of the nails hit some grain which deflected it and it made a vertical turn to exit through the benchtop protruding between my fingers I averted injury this time but I will be keeping my hands well clear in the future. :wsmile:
