## Narrative

EE was going to thread a piece of pipe. Holding the pipe in place, he started the pipe threader. His fingers were at one end of the pipe and the clamp on the pipe threader caught his left middle finger, clamping it to the pipe while twisting both the pipe and his fingers. He was taken to a local ER where he received stitches for a laceration of his left middle finger. Returned LD.
