Narrative

While EE was bolting on the right side of the bolter, they were drilling the outside 7' hole and while doing so they dropped the drill box causing the wrench to fall out. They lowered the box and leaned over to pick up the wrench, they placed their left hand on the drill box at which time the steel came out of the roof and hit their left ring finger against the drill box.
