Holy @#$%#$%#$%#$%#$% !!!!

He didn't chop his fingers off he chopped his #$%#@$%#$% hand in half...

A very welcome reminder to be very very careful!

A bit gory but an exceptional job of re-attaching the fingers.
I'd be interested to see how well it worked and if he recovered full use of the hand.

Never according to the doctor: "He will never have full use of his hand, but with rehabilitation he should have some movement".

Surprising to see the fingers all still connected to the outer half of the palm. Meat is a lot softer than wood...

At this point, I think I will take some time to beef up the exit guard on my cross-cut jig. I never want to see a spinning blade emerge from the rear fence that my hand is holding on to. Even though there is a substantial guard over it already, I found myself pushing the thing forward the other day with my hand dangerously low over the guard. Thanks for posting the reminder that butchery is only ever centimetres (and milliseconds) away.
