Come to think of it, I would also add radial arm saw to the list of
tools that can hurt you if you have a thought lapse.


I'm not going to pick on the RAS only:
Any tool that involves spinning a blade can hurt you right quick. I've got
a Dremel Saw Max that spins a little 4" blade. Sure wouldn't take very
long for it to hurt you.
