Just a quick 2 cents here. I have a real good friend who is an extremely experienced woodworker. A small block of hardwood that he had just cut off on his table saw.. about inch and a half all around... danced a little and then contacted the blade and shot back and hit him in the mouth. It broke some teeth AND broke his jaw. He's ok now but he gets dressed up to work with his power tools. Part of his costume is a dual cartridge respirator and a full face shield. He says if he'd been wearing his safety equipment he probably would have gotten a fat lip at most.

I make and play wooden flutes. Every time I get ready to use my tools I ask myself..."which finger can YOU do without?"..

Quite frankly, I'd miss any of 'em dearly. And while I'm one of those guys that was brought up being told "the table saw is the most dangerous tool in your workshop", I also know that ANY of them can bite you if you aren't paying attention and that means BEFORE you start using them (while making sure all safety gear is in place) as well as WHILE you're using them.

My table saw blade guard/anti-kick are mounted. Sometimes they HAVE to come off, but I don't have to be happy about it.
