Default Can you think of a safer way to cut a tiny piece of wood on atable saw?

Wrong saw for the job. Period.


Just a quibble on this small point....

I don't think it is the wrong tool. *I think the application of the
tool is wrong.

He should hold the piece to be cut with the tip of his index finger
(only) and rapidly move the saw into the wood before it can get away
while yelling "JUDO... CHOP!".

(Probably followed by a scream, but hey, no one said learning woodwork
wasn't without sacrifice!)

Besides, micro-surgery has come a long way.
In fact, just recently doctors in Africa grafted a baby elephant trunk
in place of a wrestler's penis which had been ripped off in an
alligator fight.
The wrestler in question, after many months of intense therapy and
healing, was interviewed by a team of doctors
When asked what his overall experience was, the wrestler commented
that his girlfriend was quite happy, but that every time he walks
across a lawn, the damn thing would shove a tuft of grass up his butt.
