Reminds me of a story that a friend told me about the guy who filed
the depth guages off.


Some piececutters up here used to do that. Of course they have some
high-powered saws, and they could cut like mad with no depth limiters. I
once had to put a tourniquet - something we NEVER do by training, unless
desperate, on one guy because he went a bit too far and fast. Obese BP cuff
makes a good thigh TQ, for those who've never tried it. Don't have to take
it down too hard if you don't have monster bleeders, and it will close off
the smaller, more numerous ones. Six minute response time helps, too!
