Almost got me!
« on: September 23, 2009, 07:36:40 am »
About to beat the mashed potato, was talking to DH who was working at the kitchen table, turned it up to 8 - one hell of a din and then I remembered I had the butterfly in there :P :P :P Luckily, it was just dislodged and got caught under the blades but was intact - phew, a close one.  So beware all you newbies - I'm an oldie and it has taken almost 12 months for me to get caught.  DH should go work out in the shed, not at my kitchen table >:( >:( >:( >:(  Another reason why I like it to be just me and my TMX in the kitchen at all times ;) ;) ;)

Would be good if there was a button for butterfly use - speed limiter -governor

The Germans are clever- maybe a sensor that can tell when the butterfly is in place.

Or a very loud siren.

Didn't need a siren Cookie1 - the noise was deafening and DH nearly went through the roof.  I was just so lucky I still had my hand on the controls to be able to stop it immediately.  Then I told DH not to say a word, I think I have done something really bad.  He was too scared to open his mouth, I can tell you that.   ;D ;D ;D ;D
