That's why I never wear long sleeves with power saws, 'cept the sawsall and chainsaws, have used em outside with a jacket on, but those blade's are purty far away from yer hands. Knew a guy once that got ripped across the belly, just above his belly button, hadda hold some guts from falling out till the med folks got there. Horrible scar... I can't imagine the pain.

 

My jointer scares me, them spinning blades out in the open...

Don't have a radial arm any more, but had one in the middle of an 11' bench when I lived in Phoenix. Could saw a sheet of plywood in half lengthwise real easy. Had a variety of push sticks and hold downs, never wanted to get my fingers near that blade, radials were awful about kick back. Had a table saw throw a piece of wood through a garage wall once, sure glad it missed me - cutting a thin piece, saw launched it like a spear... Still got hold downs, guides, and sticks for the table saw.

 

Hey, Mike, how's the throbbing this morning?

From the stitches, from the stitches...

 

Gone? Dang, I liked wood shop. Hmm, Mom hadda couple pieces I made back in high school, bet my brudder tossed em after she died, he dint keep hardly anything she had.
