Narrative

EE was replacing the broken handle on his personal chipping hammer in the North Shop. While using a bench vise to secure the new handle in position, EE used another small hammer to drive the wedge pin into the top of the new handle at the head of the chipper. The 2 hammer heads made contact, causing several small pieces of metal to break off and went into top of EE's left hand.
