Safety first. - 09.26.2009, 11:03 PM

I have been in a position of supervision for a long time and we always tell whoever is working with machinery that safety always comes first. That is just plain stupid from what I can see.

My first experience was working in a Vo-Tech class when I was 14. This kid was cutting 1/4" masonite on the tablesaw, into 1" strips. The only problem was that he had the blade set up to cut through 4" X 4" poles. I tried telling him that he needed to lower the blade, but he just started cutting anyway to show me who was the smart a$$. I watched him cut all of his fingers off below the second knuckle and he did not even realize what he had done until he turned his hand over, and the fingers were only hagning on by the upper skin. Most of the kids in the class were vomitting all over the shop. I could not go near the tablesaw for quite a while after watching that dumb a$$.


SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.
