I've seen him run lots of stock on lots of machines, but any time he
has to venture near the blade/bit, he has a pushstick or jig. Always.

Too many people claim they've seen his hands near the blade and
whenever I go look at the episode what I see is a long shot with
telephoto from down low behind the blade. ...

I've not watched a lot of Norm (wrong time o' day/day o' week and I'm
not into taping, etc.) but I don't recall thinking he was doing anything
I'd be uncomfortable with in any episodes I have seen...the one that was
kinda' scary (and had the bandages to prove it) was Tom Silva on TOH but
he was my "favoritest" of all to watch for all that for his common sense
and skill set...I just don't follow his work habits all the time...
