sorry about your finger!

i learned today that 150 torque pounds on a panel mounting plate nut is a little tooooo excessive. twisted that fkr right off! now that panel was taken back to the shop by disgruntled workers (at me of course) to be fixed. not an easy fix. all mounting plates (the plates you mount the equipment to like i did here a month or so ago. anyway, i fucked up. made a mistake. funny thing is the super wasn't even mad at me. said, eh, it happens. then later i learned that with my new klein wire cutter/stripper/pliers tool that when you pinch your palm while trimming back a wire to re-teminate? it hurts. what's more is it locks when squeezed. what's worse is you have to squeeze the grip tighter to unlatch the lock. then i learned what way NOT to go home! what a day.
