The end product is nice. But those fingers so close to fast moving

be bad.

This must be my week for not seeing things, because once again, I do
not see anything in that video that shows fingers so clos to fast
moving sharpened steel. I've now watched it twice and they guy
follows all of the right safety measures on those tools. I think
the fast motion can/does create an illusion that the viewer should
watch more than once to be sure to see what is really happening,
because I just don't see anywhere that his fingers are in a position
to worry "if something went wrong".

At 0:32 and a close up at 0:37, I would certainly be using a push
stick. I keep one on top of the fence so I can grab it when I find
myself getting anywhere close. I don't believe in reaching so my
parts on the opposite side of the sharp thing.

At both of those time marks in the provided link, he is scribing with
a tri-square. What is so dangerous in that?

It strikes me that some of us may be responding to different links. Here is
the link that was originally provided, and upon which I had based all of my
comments.

So Mike did you not see the "4" links in the original post? It is in
the last one that the excitement begins.
