Narrative

Removing GET from lip of bucket. Was using a pry bar and soft face hammer to work the old tooth off with the crane attached. The tooth was moving and I was using the hammer to walk the adapter forward. When hitting the adapter a piece of the corner of the adapter splintered off and hit my left inner thigh.
