Working with a large radial arm saw and was notching the end of a piece of timber. The aluminium backstop broke and the timber kicked through the saw. There was a brass screw in the other end of the piece of wood that caught my glove and dragged my hand through the saw as as it kicked through. It happened in the blink of an eye.
Blimey, that's some injury and an impressive recovery.
