Hand Vs. Table Saw

Nearly lost my left hand to a Table saw this summer! cut 90% through the thumb bone and 100% through the pinky. 11 hrs. of surgery, four days in the hospital and three pins later...

Re: Hand Vs. Table Saw

Also, any chance you'll be able to regain feeling/use of that hand?

I cut through my left thumb and index finger years ago and some of the feeling has returned, but still numb in certain areas. And I can't do a 'thumbs up' anymore
