Prolly should have put a guard on those open pullies

Sorry to hear of your accident. I can't imagine your pain. Wish you a speedy recovery.
Machinery knows nor cares about age. I happens before you know it. I've seen several finger amputations working in powder metal pressing for 26 years and have come close myself. One person I took to Delnor hospital along with the severed part. They wanted nothing to do with trying to save it.
