I had one recently also. It was my first one. No splitter and no push
block.

How did yours happen? Were you using a splitter? How big was the piece
you were cutting?


I was cutting 1/2" plywood that was 6" wide. I thought I had it all the way
through. I apparently had another inch or so to go and I had my head in my
rear and took my right hand off of the board and whammo it got me. No more
late night stints for me.



WOW, that small board did that much damage??? Boy, I sure will have to
think twice and even respect using one even more so now.
