A week ago Sunday I had the worlds dumbest tale saw injury.
I was ripping on the slider using a Fritz und Franz jig when my daughters kitten leapt up on the saw, right beside the blade, and it’s tail went up into the guard.
The sliding table was in the full rear position pulled back to start the rip.
Without thinking I grabbed the cat and pulled it away, it was unscathed, my left hand, not so much.
Three injured fingers, one a slight cut, two with partially amputated ends.
How I ever got my fingers in beside the riving knife and blade I have no idea, photo attached.
I saw the surgeon yesterday, no further work required, although soaking the fingers on a daily basis in Epsom salts is a great reminder not to do it again
In a couple of weeks the stitches OEM out…….Regards, Rod
