I'm glad you're still able to type about it. Well I hope you and your son learned a valuable lesson. Compressed springs fall under the category of stored energy in OHSA's rule book. I personally witnessed a similar incident with a semi truck pancake cylinder when one of our young inexperienced helpers removed the clamp over the drum just as I walked through the door it just missed my head and went through the drywall and stuck in the inner wood siding liner. I couldn't speak for a few minutes but he and I had a long conversation later mostly one sided. I know he felt bad about it but he has turned out to be a fine mechanic since and I know even to this day he is very sorry. Hope all is well with your hand. CT
