Says alot for Dewalt torque

A coworker use to always say "the clutch can be you friend". I don't think you'll find one on a corded model.

So I was using a 1/2" dewalt corded drill with a side handle. I was drilling a hole in a nema 12 box with a 1" unibit. I needed a 1" hole. The bit caught. The drill spun and my left hand got twisted in the handle and broke my middle finger in three places.

Were you holding on to the side handle as well ?

Yes. The side handle is what broke my finger.

Started my therapy today. Its real nice when they bend stuff as far as they can until it hurts. Geez. I'm glad to be moving forward though. One step closer to recovery

That sucks! What did they find?

The tendons and bone grew together when the bone healed. They went in and cut the tendons loose. It still doesn't feel right though.
