Again note: "Non-occupational" I think pros are more careful.


Living in furniture manufacturing country, I would argue the opposite.

A person making the same types of cuts for hours at a time tend to get bored
and then sloppy, and forget to be careful. Then the finger leaves the hand.

I think everyone would be surprised how easy you can get used to using
guards, for most cuts.


The thing is, if you're making the same cut for hours at a time, it's
cost effective to make jigs and fixturing specific to that cut and to
incorporate guards and to put up and take down the setup.
