were there robot related injuries on your team?

well of course working on heavy machinery can be dangerous... but has anybody on your team been hurt durring the years of working on the robot?

on our team 322, one serious, and one seriously funny injury occured this past year... the first was when our driver was opperating on a surface grinder to grind a washer down to fit in our transmission. well he finished grinding, but forgot to turn the machine off when dusting the table off. his middle finger went through the surface grinder and as a result, his nail was ripped off the finger, and he was rushed to the hospital. later that same day he returned to finish working on the transmission. his finger nail is now almost completely grown back.

our second (funny) injury occured when we were trying to glue a tread to one of our wheels. we used epoxy, and to make sure it was on tight, we used a rubber surgical tube to hold it down. after wrapping the tube around the wheel about 20 times, we were trying to tie a knot in it, when it slipped and began spinning off the wheel. all we heard was slap slap slap, and our engineer was rolling over on the ground. it turns out that as it was spinning off the wheel, the tube hit him in the nuts. imagine getting hit in the nuts like 20 times in one second
