yep, one of your discs you left shattered as i was cutting off a bolt head, standing over the top of it when it blew a chunk or the disc (who knows) flew directly straight up and nailed me in the shoulder

felt like i got hit in football practice by a guy Hotrex's size...looked down, saw blood...immediately ripped off my shirt, pressed it on the wound and had one of the employees drive me to the emergency room

cant wait to see the bill for this mistake...

Shouldn`t have bleed too much since the grinder prob.ly "burned" the wound shut.
Cauterizing is the term you were looking for

I was gonna psot my pics I was a scholar usin an angle gringer and i didnt have safety glasses on well nice chunk of metal landed in my eye spent 2 days in bed with some serious pain. Finally on the 3rd day i wook up my eyes were all teared up so I forced myself to cry and sure enough it came out. No health insurance sucks


Hope you atleast got some good pills
