Dad was a contractor -carpenter and I spent many days being the pull-man on the other end of a table saw. Dad used a push stick and still has all his fingers. A lease mate of mine that was a few years older showed up missing two and a half fingers. Screw that . The older I get the more I adhere to sensible safety practices. Been lucky too many times and figure I need to maximize what little I might have left.

Does anyone use those saws that automatically cut off when coming in contact with flesh? Amazing things.
