    The only object that was in any harms-way was my drill. I was completely aware of the dangers, and made sure I was in a safe position. No worries! I even used my 6 year old 18V POS Ryobi drill just in case anything happen.

    The short one went near the tire the other two per side were the same length so I don't know. I thought about cutting them down but wasn't sure.
