Re: FIRST Injury Stories

Packing up our tools in the bed of NJ this year his hed and mine colided knocking his glasses off as i raised my head to answer a question of his.

I had a little run in with a lose connection in the circuit box in our shop when i tripped a breaker using our mill. Ou shop has two switch boxes, the top of which we do not have the key to, and while reaching my hand up there to flip a breaker back on i grounded my elbow on the metal door and touched a loose connection getting 120V across the forearm.

While filing down aluminum with a bench mounted belt sander this year the rubber finger pad of the tumb on one of my gloves fused to my finger.

Using the same belt sander the year before i took off the corner of one of my knuckles when my hand slipped after a team mate dropped a rack of metal, spurning my usage of gloves.

Got a fat lip using a router when a hot chunk of aluminum got stuck in the face mask i was wearing.

Got a mouth full of spindle oil while using the lathe, Not an injury just funny

All of these and a few fun others that i wont tell you (but im sure my team mates and mentors would be glad to) were sustained while wearing the proper safety equipment, making me the most experienced and motivated safety captian my team has ever had.
