Default Aiy yie yie! Rotary cut finger!

Well, it finally happened! After having boasted earlier how I held my fingers to get an accurate cut with the June Tailor Short Cut, I placed my finger too close and sliced it. To get a better spread of my left hand, I apply pressure to the Short Cut with my thumb and middle finger. I place them as close as I can to the slit I'll be cutting through. .. usually an inch from the slit. I was slicing 2 1/2 inch strips when I felt it!! My INDEX finger was much closer ( up in the air) and it was cut. I didn't look to see how deep it is because it was bleeding so much. Just applied pressure, ran for a piece of aloe vera.It now has a bandage. I did finish my cutting for two blocks.
