Using a mandolin slicer to cut a cucumber, got too close and the tip of my finger ended up in the cuke bowl

Cut-resistant gloves are a must for a mandolin!

Did the fingerprint grow back?

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

It was still barely hanging on by a bit so I superglued it down, small scar on the side but otherwise back to normal

i continually rotate the angle of the cutted object so that there is more force concentrated at a smaller impact area.
also when i start reaching the end i progressively slow way down. by the time i reach the nub i am either cutting with conventional knife or just slowly forcing the last bit through.
kinda sucks because its supposed to be fast.
