Narrative

After using a chop saw to cut six pieces of 6'x 1-½"" square tubing, an employee was manually unloading the tubing onto a metal table. While carrying and dropping the tubing over a small MIG welder onto a welding table, the burred edge of the pieces cut into the base of the employee's left thumb.
