Wearing a wedding ring while spannering? Well really! When I was at college in Birmingham in the early 1970s a Safety Officer from "the BSA" came to do a talk on workshop safety and showed us a snap he'd taken several years before on a works tour looking out for dangerous practices. He'd seen a turner put his hand out to stop a lathe chuck and whipped up his camera to illustrate. The picture he showed us was of a man with his left hand in the air with a white string connected to the chuck...this was the tendon from his wedding ring finger.
