Default Safety issues of wearing gloves when using power tools?


wrote in message
consider the blade slowed to near stalling by a bound board, like
right before a kickback. add to that the glove being held stretched a
bit by your sweaty hands in contact with the wood and the potential
for unpredictable behavior from the objects in question go up a bit.

no gloves around machinery for *me*


Gloves also increase the size of your hands too and alters your spatial
senses. That quck brush of a bare finger gets you closer with a glove over
it.
