Do I win a Darwin award

Postby Wrecit » Sun May 22, 2022 8:55 pm

As a professional union carpenter I take on the job safety very serious.......at home I guess not so much.

Reskinning my enclosed conversion with FRP and using the original screw holes. I put my son on the inside with a drill with a small drill bit to pop the holes then I use my trusty 20 v gun to run the self tappers through. To protect my hand o was using my gun to put pressure on the frp making sure to be slightly below where he was drilling....or so I thought lol.
Drilled right into my 20v lithium ion super battery

Wife googled what to do because on the job site we would just throw it in the dumpster and move on after the boss yelled. Long story a little shorter she made me go to the local fire department and all they said was just don't put it in the house lol
You hide your conversion and call it stealth. I put mine out in the open and give it a beer.

Darwin awards are only for those who have removed themselves from the gene pool (hopefully before they have progeny). Since you are still with us and hopefully a bit wiser...

There is a special honorable mention for those that are still with us but find themselves unable to reproduce after said act.
