Be vewee vewee cayuful wiff dat ahm bwace thing
at da bottom of duh page - wabbit.

I know two wood turners who were severly injured
when using such an "arm brace" - one had to have
shoulder surgery and the other tore a floating rib
from the cartlige it was connected to. Even a
one horse power motor can kick - hard - if there's
a bad "catch".

It's preferebale to have the turning tool get damaged
than to have a human being holding it damaged.

Word to the wise?
