I've cut myself, I've glued fingers together, and I've been impaled by miniature spears. The last seems to be missing from the poll options despite being mentioned in the question. |

This is a dangerous hobby! |

Other: Cut my hand on a piece of broken acrylic while trying to cut said acrylic using the "score and snap" method (not recommended by me now). I was then forbidden from ever cutting acrylic again by SWMBO.
Now I buy Lexan/plexiglass, and either have it pre-cut or team up with a buddy with a table saw and blades for cutting plexiglass. |

Have you considered putting on a pair of shoes? |

At that rate might want to find a safer hobby.😁 |

Another vote for being impaled by spears, usually just under the fingernail so your eyes water. |

Shoes?
We don't need no stinking shoes! I mean, how else are you gonna find the stuff that fell off your work table onto your 70s vintage shag carpet?
Just gotta suck it up!! |

Not impaled by spears but by swords. A couple of guys I game with flatten strait pins and use them as swords. I have had a base of cavalry imbedded in my hand. |

The odd cut, burn and glue mishap But I live on a farm, so that is way safer than puttin' up fences and clearing the back '40 |

It's a dubious honor to be the only one who's gotten glue in his eyes. |

At the third cut I stop trimming flash for the day. |
