Default Most dangerous tool in shop

Then, based on the given criteria, your answer is non. You do get points,
though, for actually reading and understanding the question.

You're question doesn't quite have an answer the way it's phrased. I

haven't
hurt myself any of my tools within recent memory, but it doesn't mean

they're
all at the same danger level.

I've always put the drill press, belt grinder, and scroll saw in the

"safest
tool" catagory. The table saw, shaper, and jointer are the ones to watch

out
for. Flying and impaled body parts can ruin a good day.

What in your opinion is the most dangerous tool in your wood shop, based

on
the number and severity of injuries you have received, not on what you

have
heard from other people.

My vote is first the stationary belt sander, Forever letting small wood
pieces get away and scraping fingers, and second the drill press same
reason.
