Narrative

An employee was operating a shaper to mold pieces of wood when a piece of wood got thrown out of the shaper and caused the employee's fingers to make contact with the shaper knife. He lost the first digit of his ring finger, more than half of his middle finger, and his index fingertip to the bone on the right hand, requiring hospitalization.
