Guess I better slow down.

I drilled my finger, only just yesterday morning. Holding a backing block on the gunwale to prevent tear out. Must have hit a previous drill divot, the bit just zipped right through the block and I felt the hot brad point poke right into my left index finger. Just a poke, but enough to get the attention. Few more seconds from here out to screw a clamp to hold my backing blocks.
