Video - Saw Blade Protection

[Geaney]

I fully agree with having all the safety gear in place and adopting safe practice, etc. I remember years go in school our woodwork teacher was demonstrating something on the table saw - the blade kicked back and shot the long 2x1 offcut like a spear clear down to the end of the workshop where it ploughed through the door of one of the tool cabinets up on the wall. I can't remember what the exercise was about but I will always remember that spear sticking through the door!

Teacher went a bit pale as I recall!
