Default Finger or two between soft top bars?

Okay... Who else has done this? Getting the top up on my unlimited today alone with thunderstorms rolling in fast. Had an issue, came back down to adjust and BAMN.... totally mashed a finger between the soft top bars HARD.

Wow, cursed like mad... Hurt like hell and felt dumb as shit...

SO, anyone else done this?

Oh yeah. Been there. Only I must be really dumb. I didn't learn the first time. Two or three times for me.

Hrm ouch!

I just went outside to let the dogs out for a bit and found it raining.... DAMN! about a 1/8inch rain the cup holders. We don't have alot of light outside and it seemed harder to put up than usual. Hopefully it'll dry out in short order since I left the windows open in my truck too! ISH.... Hopefully won't need to go anywhere in the morning, and it'll be a nice day...

Always do the top by myself because my wife smashed her fingers everytime she tried to help me.
