With no splitter, he's just begging for a kickback. I don't see that
there's
any greater inherent danger of amputations with this setup than with
any other table saw, though, except to the extent that someone who
would engage in this sort of redneck rigging is less likely to
observe proper safety precautions
than someone who would instead buy, borrow, or rent the right
equipment.


Right! Every commercial table saw comes with a splitter these days!

Most are in a box somewhere in the shop.
