I've had my own 'moments' with the wire wheel, we use them a lot, usually the cupped brushes that go into the 4" Angle grinder. First time was a pearler, was a 'tad' interesting trying to switch off the grinder while not allowing it to strangle me and remove my nipple at the same time. Loose T shirts are a BIG no no.
Also had to pull out a few wires from myself as well as they do eventually leave home at a rate of knots that would make any parent blush with shame. Now I use a nice thick leather apron that the wheel cant grab and a face shield and gauntlets. Picking out wires that are embedded into your knuckle bones isn't tremendous fun, nor is looking like Ghandi because one hit you right between the eyes where your glasses dont cover. Excellent tool, due serious respect.
