    5 ton steering wheel on a deuce?

    The deuce steering wheel measures just over 20" and my 5 ton steering wheel measures 17 and 3/4". My question is, can you put a 5 ton steering wheel onto the deuce column easily? Also are the centers (horn button) the same in the deuce and 5 ton?

    Lost part of my finger yesterday, safety reminder

    Todd thanks for sharing the pics. I worked with a guy who had his hand smashed and then put back together. Within two months he had to have those three fingers cut off. That was one thing I made clear with the surgeon is that I did not want to save it only to save it. I did not want to be back...

    Thanks guys. Here are the pics! I am working with the Oregon health Plan to help cover the costs. Not sure if they will or not yet, I will keep all of you updated. The more people who share their stories, the more others will be aware.

    Lost part of my finger yesterday, safety reminder

    Lost part of my finger yesterday, safety reminder

    Thanks guys for everything!! I am thinking it is time to upgrade the saw. That safety device mentioned by ida34 sounds like a great investment to me. I now know that you cannot put a price on anything, not even a finger. It is human nature to take things for granted, I just wanted to open...
