Rick explains how he lost his index finger in a work accident. The missing finger is the inspiration for the name Digit9. The "stubby" makes life difficult for a guy who loves wrenching and working on snowmobiles.
If you're new to our channel, we post videos about snowmobile tuning. Lots of tips and tricks for maintaining and modifying your sled and sled trailer. Mostly just DIY sled stuff for people who like to get their hands dirty or tinker in their garage.

got a story for ya. my uncle in his youth had gotten himself a motorcycle. he was super stoked about it. something happened to where he had to do some wrenching on the rear sprocket and chain, I guess what happened was he was attempting to slip the chain on but his left hand got caught and chopped off his left fingers down to the first joint from the knuckles. sad part was, that was his guitar playing hand. he had a little band going. he wanted to go places. I was 11 and had gotten my first guitar. he heard about it and attempted to show me how to play, he couldn't even make out a note.. the impression on his face was heart breaking. I can tell he wanted to jam with me. to show me what he had. I too had an incident on my left pinky, got my tip ripped off from a door being slammed. I know the pain very well. I was 8 yrs old at the time. but 30 years later it was like it was yesterday. sorry for the book, just wanted to share. hope you the best. happy holidays from Alaska 👊

My cuzzin lost two fingers after falling off a Log lathe in a lumber mill. When he reached to grab something, it was the Knives on the lathe he grabbed. Leather gloves didn’t help much. Lotsa shit out there will get ya killed! Stay safe.
