Final narrative
Two employees were using a handheld banding tool to make banding tape for tent set-ups. One employee was holding the banding tool and the injured employee was looping a metal clip around the tape. The tool closed while the injured employee's hand was near the banding mechanism. The banding tape caught the employee's right ring finger as it tightened, resulting in a partial amputation.
