Reminds me of my angle grinder "incident" last harvest. Working in the dark
with trouble light trying to remove a stubborn bearing from a combine. This
was in a very awkward location requiring standing on a box, reaching up,
over and down behind the return elevator with the heavy duty angle grinder.
I don't know if it was the heat or the smoke that finally alerted me that
the arm of my coveralls was starting to burn from the steady stream of
sparks and hot metal coming directly off the grinding wheel. Burned a hole
through my coveralls and shirt but luckily, no further. I guess it could
have been worse.
