Distant cousin of SWMBO was found dead in his workshop a couple of years
ago, and police originally treated it as suspicious. However, it emerged
that he'd disabled a safety feature on his industrial-grade circular saw -
I don't know the details but I think he somehow got impaled on a length of
wood he was cutting and bled to death before being able to summon help.


That bring sup another point. My workshop is in a detached garage. I
usually work by myself, but I always take either the portable phone or my
cell phone.
