Happy belated Birthday!Last Friday was my birthday and I was doing some filets up in cast iron skillets, I had 4 filets going at the same time and I'd had a smidgen to drink. The timer went off for the medium rare filets and I grabbed an Ove Glove to use like a pot holder for the final flip. I grabbed the skillet, realized I was getting burnt, kept a hold so I could flip the steaks anyways, then let go. A second degree burn, the gift that keeps on giving.

Nathan the Machinist here's a few pics of the nlx, was nice to meet you at blade!
Man, I'm gonna have to take pictures of our CNC dinosaurs!
Potato knife dang nabbit! LolHey thanks for posting that. Those multi axis lathes make me feel all tingly...
I enjoyed our conversation. I hope you'll swing by again some time.
Happy belated Birthday!
Those photos in the kitchen are great!
BTW, just to be clear, you got that burn THROUGH the oven mitt?
Ahhhh that’s gross. Can’t believe you didn’t pop it sooner, it looked like having at least an egg stuck to your palm! That steak looked like it might be worth it though.
Ah, ouch.Nope, I grabbed the mitt and wrapped it around the handle instead of putting it on my hand and it wasn't covering everything.
15 days later the damn thing finally popped. I was drawing up a Shiv sheath design and actually thought the roof was leaking or something for a second. No worriesFonedork I have more paper.
