The mental image gives me chills!

The problem with power tools is that one moment of inattention can mark you for life. I have a old radial arm saw that I use for 90 degree cuts only. I'd rather have a sliding miter saw, but a friend gave me the radial arm and as it's paid for, I continue to use it. I am always aware just how easy it would be for that saw to remove limbs. Then, so could my table saw, drill, planer or routers.

Anything that can cut wood can cut flesh with far less effort. Thus, it behooves each and every one of us to use and continue to exercise care when using tools, both power and hand. The Sawstop is OK. Nothing will replace attention and care.

Nothing.
