Employee was sent up to shop area to remove a 1 1/2" nipple out of a 1 1/2" elbow, using a vise and two pipe wrenches. He allowed one hand to be too close to the 2nd wrench and the wrench slipped on the nipple hitting his upper fingers with the handle end. He used a smaller wrench when 2 large wrenches were available
