A 1x2 is a fairly small piece. To be really impressed, you
need to see a 2x4 leave the room. A piece of 1/4" plywood
thrown at you by a VERY large table saw is also quite exciting.

I use a overhead guard and a splitter if "at all possible"
on 90% of all cuts now.

Hi, All,

I thought kickback was for thumb fingered geeks who didn't read the
manuals. I was wrong!!! Just got my first table saw last week, and
while putting some grooves in the ends of 1x2's, I dropped or bumped an
8 inch piece against the blade.
