My father had a craftsman 60+ years ago. It had the cast iron web
extension tables (double). It also had the finger-killer motor,
exposed, hanging off the back. Those were the days that one was
expected to know that table saws were dangerous. Bubble wrap hadn't
been invented yet so mothers hadn't started wrapping kids in it from
birth.


Yeah, everyone should be short a finger or two.

Sure, accidents never happen, so there is no point attempting
to prevent them.

you played in the dirt. "You don't know who was there last!".
Sheesh!
