One thing I'm still unsure of regarding table saws: is there really much risk of injury if you follow all of the typically recommended safety practices?
Every tablesaw injury I remember hearing about involved the operator failing to follow some of those guidelines.
- confidantlake 5y agoIf you do everything right there is not much risk. But I have never met a human who does everything right 100% of the time.

- zentiggr 5y agoThis goes back to the basic point of safety work: Even the best trained, most attentive and careful operator can get into dangerous situations. There's no way to anticipate the moment that their attention might wander or some external circumstance might just force the situation.
