Narrative

Miner was putting a bearing housing on a press table, to press out bearing. Pryed up one side of housing with a bar and a small block to get a better bite on housing for positioning over press. Housing slipped off the pry bar and slid and pinched miner's finger between housing and press table, resulting in a cut finger, requiring stitches.
