Re: [DMCForum] Re: Spring stuck

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well the compressor I was using wasn't particularly heavy. That is to 
say it weighed considerably less than my head - Newtonian physics meant 
that I was left with a lump the size of half an egg on my forhead and a 
cut on my nose, but no concussion. It went across my eye which was 
unbelievably lucky.

What was marginally more entertaining was getting the other compressor 
off, which had by now made the spring banana shaped (throw it as far 
away down the road as possible, then spend half an hour searching the 
hedge roughly where the compressor had launched itself)
