Default Norm and safety

About the only move that makes me involuntarily turn my head is when Norm
runs 1 1/2" x 3/4" stock over a dado stack, with one hand, or both, pushing

A useful criterion for determining the degree of safety of anything you're
about to do in the shop is to ask yourself "If the wood suddenly disappeared,
where would my fingers go?"

I think Norm doesn't ask himself that question very often.
