Houston Press | The Scalping of Sylvia, A machinist gets maimed by a vintage lathe By JOSH HARKINSON
A year ago this month, one of the plastic plates slipped off her lathe and fell to the floor. When Villarreal reached down to pick it up, the machine's exposed drive shaft caught her ponytail. Spinning at 100 rpm, the shaft ripped off her scalp and part of her ear. Other workers barely heard her screams over the roar of the factory's machines.------------------------------------------- posted 8:10 AM :: reference link ::
