My brain when it refuses to function, often due to the influence of a 
bottle of IPA.  LIke right now.  At such times the most dangerous 
physical object would be the ignitoin kye.  I refuse to attempt to 
use tools like spring compressors, won't even own one.  Likewise for 
welding and a few other things I can't think of right now.  Rather 
pay someone else to do a really dangerous job, someone with 
experience, training, space, and with the reason to have bought the 
proper high quality tool in the first place.  But I do occasionally 
worry about catching a sleeve in a belt while setting the timing, or 
something similar.  Sure smash my knuckles often enough with 
wrenches.  Don't even like running the grinding wheel.  I worry about 
parts that have sharp edges ready to slice open an exposed finger.
