Suggested safety material for the "Most dangerous tool in shop"

I take blood thinners to keep from having a severe stroke. What I fear most
is getting a serious cut in the shop and then bleeding out before reaching
the hospital. You folks who are in a similar situation might want to look at
"QuickClot" , it is a new material that, when put on a wound, will make the
blood clot.

you better be seriously cut before you use that stuff...
burns like the dickens, and not real fun to get cleaned out of a
wound.

Not to mention that some of us have to be on the second floor of our
home for a decent cellular signal. I have no cellular service in my
basement shop.

Good info. I just bought some of that for the first aid kit at work, but
we've not used it yet.

Also a good idea to have a telephone where it can be reached. Portable is
better than a cell phone for 911 as it gives your address to the operator.
Cell phones don't do that yet, but will.
