Yeah every now and then a bagel would get stuck. We had this like plastic rod with a massive end so you could jam it down the shoot without ever hitting the blade.
It was really just me forgetting to be patient and wait. It takes like a good minute for the blade to come to a complete stop. Usually you can hear it whirring and know it’s still spinning, but after working in there all day you kind of get used to the sound.

That forgetfulness is why OSHA rules exist. Probably should have had Lockout/Tag out on that machine
That’s how experienced people get into accidents. Work fast and forget to think. It happens so often.
glad you got to keep your fingers 😊
