A few years ago I read about a woman who was using her rotary cutter in the open and locked position. She was wearing strappy sandles, and well........I'm sure you get the picture! She had a nice big slice across her toes!! After reading that I started locking my cutter immediately after I make a cut!! So far I still have all my fingers and toes! :lol:
When I was teaching quilting/sewing classes to a group of preteen/teenage students, I told them a rotary cutter was like a pizza cutter with a razor blade! They got the picture!! I also put a finger guard on the edge of the rulers they used. All of them left that class with all their fingers intact. 8-)
