Show Notes on Shop Saftey Tips
  • Don't force it, or bad things will happen
  • Complacency is the root of many shop safety issues
  • Take breaks when doing repetitive tasks so your mind doesn't wander.
  • A riving knife will help prevent kickback of large and small parts.
  • The guys don't think a SawStop will make you complacent.  You adjust to your surroundings, no matter what the tool is, so you make yourself complacent.
  • Can you afford to lose a finger? Don't cut your nose off to spite your face.
  • Don't reach across the blade, and remember to turn it off when not using it.
  • Keeping control of the waste on a CNC machine is just as important as control over the part.
  • The two most important rules of making are to keep your tools sharp and approach your work with finesse.
  • Work holding, work holding, work holding.
