Investigation Summary
At 9:20 a.m. on August 18, 1997, Employee #1, a sawyer for Cutting Edge Custom Cabinets, Inc., was using a table saw to rip oak drawer fronts. While he was cleaning scraps away from the point of operation, his left hand struck the unguarded blade. Employee #1's thumb and index finger were almost completely amputated, and he was transported by emergency paramedics to a nearby hospital. His finger and thumb were repaired by microsurgery, and he was released from the hospital two days later.
