The workshop is too integral to who I am, and I still use it. My wife was supportive of this, though she had her reservations. I still use the saw, but now am much more carfull.
Table saws can be dangerous if used poorly. There are plenty of vids out there showing the most common mistakes, all of which I was aware of. What I was unaware of was how completely packed the dust well had become. I also had a pair of safety goggles, which I still do not wear. I find them far to intrusive. Instead when I am cutting I make sure that my glasses are on properly, and i am not looking over them.
All that being said, a table saw, a drop saw and a pillar drill are the heart and soul of a workshop.
The real danger is how easily wounds can get infected, especially in Asia. I am now more likely to seek immediate medical help when I am cut. Also, I now have multiple bottles of iodine in the house, just in case.
