Thinking more about push-sticks and table saws-- What are the chances
that an errant pushstick will yank one's hand towards the blade? Hmmm...

Maybe should build one of those that look like a plane?

I have been reading the older book, Cabinet Making and Millwork, by John
Feirer. It seemed to get more interesting when he got to the subject of
table saws. Coincidentally, I'm sure, I'm on page 285--"Pushsticks"
(only 600 pages to go...lol).

Cheers,

I strongly recommend, for a home made push device, one that hooks at the
back of the work and also has a long section that rests on top of the
work. You really want to also hold the work down in addition to
pushing. If you need a picture I can provide one.

The push sticks that simply push from the back scare the heck out of me.
