Investigation Summary
On August 15, 2005, Employees #1 and a coworker were framing a house. Employee #1 needed to make two cuts at right angles to a piece of wood that was approximately 2-in. by 4-in. by 4ft. Employee #1 was operating a portable circular saw. Employee #1 placed the piece of wood to be cut on three pieces of wood that were lying on the ground side-by-side with a fourth piece of wood that was set apart but perpendicular to the other three. The four pieces of wood functioned as a work surface for the piece of wood to be cut. Employee #1 held the piece of wood with his left hand and the circular saw in his right. The blade hit a knot in the furthest piece of wood on the ground. The saw kicked towards Employee #1, amputating his thumb. Employee #1 indicated he used the guard and had not pinned it back and that he was experienced at using the saw. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
