Fellow Ice Carvers,
Rich Bubin recently sent me this note-
"The block slipped off the old fatigued block clips when I was putting tilt cart under block. I broke 1 finger in three places and split open the palm of my hand with 18 stiches. (Two were miner fractures and will heal on there own.)
The left index finger bone was split in four pieces. So they did a nerve block on my arm and put 8 screws to pull together my upper index finger bone. 6 to 8 weeks recovery time. Maybe I should have replace my block clips sooner, then possibly this could of have been prevented."
