Narrative

Employee claims he was getting set up to cut wood on the welding table in the maintenance shop. When he set circular saw on welding table, an 8' x 2', 1/2"" thick piece of steel that was sitting on the welding table fell on the top of his left foot. The piece of steel was hanging off welding table and the weight of the saw was enough to drop steel off table.
