## Narrative

The brick rig was in use in the kiln to support brick being installed.  Pogo sticks are set on the rig to the brick to keep pressure on them until the brick ring can be keyed.  The brick rig shifted causing the pogo sticks to lose tension resulting in the brick above to fall, severing the last 3/4inch of EE's finger tip.
