My worst injury happened last year. It was shipping day and we were in weight reduction time. We were down to the last hour. As you could imagine, it was getting a little crazy. I was using a hacksaw to cut off a piece of angle and it slipped. Unforturnately my thumb was right in it's path. The saw managed to work it's way 1/4" into the top part of my thumb and nail and prob. close to the bone. I prob. should have gotten stiches but I didn't. I have never seen a robot with that much blood on it.
