Investigation Summary
At 6:30 p.m. on October 28, 1991, Employee #1 removed the blade guard from a 10 inch circular table saw and made a lengthwise cut in a sample wood turning, pushing it through with his hands. Employee #1's left hand slipped and contacted the blade, which amputated his index finger at the second joint, the middle finger at the tip, and lacerated his thumb. Employee #1 was transported by automobile to St. Joseph's Hospital in Huntingburg, IN, then to Jewish Hospital in Louisville, KY, where he was treated, then released to home care.
