Default It got me. -Kickback

(Lee*Michaels) doth sayeth:
That little point is SO important.
Like my old shop teacher used to say. snip

My shop teacher didn't say that. What he did was explain what
kickback was, then he purposely caused one, so we coud all see it. VERY
impressive. Then he told us to stay out of the way of a kickback and we
wouldn't have any problem. That was 1955, I was 14 1/2. That was the
first year we were allowed to use the table saw on our own, before then
all cutting was done by the shop teacher. I still remember that every
time I use my saw.
