I slipped when using a table saw when I was around 15, I remember catching myself with my face in front of the saw blade.

I still don’t use that machine alone, almost 20 years later.




I’m going to guess you were putting a lot of pressure on the wood, pushing it through the blade ?


I’m not sure what happened to be honest. I’m just glad I caught myself…

Mom would have been pissed.


In the past I've found myself pushing wood quite hard into the blade. I don't really do it anymore usually it means there is some problem. But the few times I've done it, I've thought about ending up in a similar situation to you.
