Well, he does still have all his fingers, but I wonder if the bookies in the
UK are taking bets yet?

He scares SWMBO and she doesn't know a router from a table saw. I don't know
why I continue to record his show as I just FF over the first few minutes
and erase it almost immediately.

Once, I did see him build a nice little oak bookshelf, with very nice lines,
that was put together correctly, but most of his stuff is cheesy DIY to the
max, IMO.

But he must be doing something more or less pleasing to the powers that be
.... he's on TV and we're not (although I am convinced there is a real
woodworker hiding somewhere off camera). ;)

Yeah he has to know something... I guess he rushes through the projects to
show more of what can be done.

I was thinking I might swing by and see you some time next week,
Wednesdayish. Will be be around?

Oh please. You're stretching on this one Andy. Is there any cut on a table
saw that the kickback police don't nail as a kickback hazard? That is a
perfectly reasonable cut to make on a table saw.

Now that one is... shall we say... novel. Not a horrible safety risk since
it's just a vibrating sander, but I can't imagine how wobbly that must have
been.

I'd really be concerned if there was a push stick in the picture. Note that
the board is not yet past the edge of the bed. You'd suggest a push stick
on a board that is not fully secured on the bed? It's time to quit looking
for boogy men in everything on this site. His hands aren't near the
business end of the machine and his hands offer far better control than a
push stick. So - what is the safety advantage of a push stick?

I have to agree with others here, other than the photographer running
around doing flash photography while the kids are in the middle of
operations I don't see anything to get in a twist about. I hope they
warned them a flash was coming before they fired up the machine.

No, and no. I prefer the safety and control of my hands on a piece of wood
than the instability of a push stick used for the wrong task. Yes, I have
all of my fingers and I've been woodworking for over 35 years. Maybe you
have also, and I don't suggest you abandon procedures that make you
comfortable, but the level of pure asinine safety talk here is absurd. Most
of it is nothing more than people repeating things they've heard or read and
it becomes mantra, rather than being based on anything substantial. There
are too many people here who do nothing more than look for what they can
point out as a safety issue, just for the sake of passing wind.

As to the photos, neither you nor I know what number 44 is shaping. He has
a solid hold on his stock and that mitigates more potential problems than
anything you're going to do with a push stick. If he's just doing edge work
on that shaper his hands are perfectly safe where they are. What are you
seeing that is such a concern?

The young lady, likewise has a good hold on her stock and her hands are well
clear of the cutter. She has control. What are you seeing wrong with her
picture?

The problem isn't when the person has control of their stock, it's what
happens to their body if they lose control of their stock. Kickback
has happened to all of us at one time or another, and the girl trying
to control that short piece is asking for an accident.

A push block like ones used in a jointer would make that operation much
more safe, IMO.

Suppose that the block the girl is routing does get kicked back. What do
you believe is going to happen to her that a push block would prevent?

However I think you grossly overestimate the potential for kickback from a
router table.

That's where we disagree Larry. The push block or push stick put your hands
more in the clear is something does go wrong or they keep your hands more in
the clear in the case of tight cuts like up against the rip fence, but they
do not offer more stability to the work. They can remove control. They are
an extension to your hand and as such they are a somewhat flexible
extension. I do use them and I do not want to sound like I don't advocate
them, but every tool in its place. Likewise, do not critique a perfectly
safe procedure simply because you can. To use a push block on a piece the
size she is using is going to result in less control, and probably an
increase in likelihood of kickback. How is that possibly safer?

He's standing clear of any kickback, from the look of the workpiece, it
appears the operation is a simple roundover, the stock is sufficiently
large that his hand is not near the roundover bit as it moves the stock,
what is your concern?

No hearing protection -- not a good idea.
Router bit in fence -- seems OK. It's a short piece that she is working,
use of a push stick would appear to me to be more dangerous than the
operation as she is performing it. If something grabs, she is out the the
way of any kickback, there is noone behind her. Her fingers are again well
clear of the bit, her eyes and attention appear to be firmly on the work.
I would probably have clamped a guard board over the exposed portion of the
bit at board height. A push block, particularly with an edged surface
would have the potential for tipping the workpiece.

I hadn't noticed those two yet - nasty.

The first machine is probably illegal to operate in the UK in a
commercial workshop and is _certainly_ so in a school workshop.

In fact the first one just isn't something _I'd_ do. That's the most
common table-mounted router accident requiring a hospital visit
(according to the HSE's figures) - a blind emerging cut, where the
pushing hand goes straight into the unseen cutter.


The second picture is one I'd cheerfully do, but I'd never let kids do
it. _I_ have some idea of where my fingers are, where the bit is, and
how far to separate them. Kids can't reliably do that.

A blind emerging cut 1/4" high with a 3 1/2" high workpiece is considered
hazardous? Just how would one make such a roundover in the UK? Surely a
hand-held router would be considered even more dangerous (free-spinning
unguarded bit along with chance for router kickback if the person forgets
the proper feed direction -- see your comment below regarding kids).

I think you are underestimating young teens. I know that when my dad
taught me how to use power tools, the single most important comment he made
was, "that blade doesn't know the difference between your finger and a
piece of wood -- know where it is at all times. Seeing how that girl's
concentration as she is making the cut, it appears she has been similarly
admonished.

I can't see how big the workpiece is from that picture. Maybe it's not
really that hazardous.

It's certainly _considered_ hazardous - the HSE are having a real
thing about emerging cuts. Looking at the actual stats for hand
injuries, they seem to have a point. We might all just be careless
drunks working with our eyes shut, but that's when the injuries are
happening.

http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/wis18.pdf

http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/woodindx.htm

Just how would one make such a roundover in the UK?

Same way as in the picture - but not feeding it with your fingers.

For a commercial workshop there's a strong pressure to fit tunnel
guards for this find of work

To be honest, you're going to find no (UK) school workshops and very
few colleges with spindle moulders.


Surely a
hand-held router would be considered even more dangerous

Depends on circumstances. There's a good working principle in PUWER
which says that works should be done on the least-risk machine - which
means the fixed vertical spindle, if you have one. However spindle
moulders have a bad reputation in the UK and many people avoid having
one altogether - leaving them with the free router.


I think you are underestimating young teens.

I'm probably underestimating that one, but deliberately so. You have
to plan around the worst behaved and least attentive of the group.
This is also the one most likely to whine "But _Siirr_, you let Sammy
Maloof use the bandsaw!"

If you can filter the group, perhaps a woodworking club, then you can
achieve a lot more. Your best pupils are still the same, but you don't
have to account for the less able or committed to the same extent.

I have to respectfully disagree Andy. My own kids are proof of that and
I've had a few other kids that were either neighborhood kids or the kids of
friends, who over the years I've taught a bit of wood working to, or have
for one reason or another, have done wood working in my garage. I assure
you - not all and even *most* kids that are interested in this stuff are not
the absent minded air heads you typically find in the shopping malls.
There's a world of bright, attentive kids out there. If you haven't crossed
paths with them, then that's truly a shame, because it does your heart good
to work with them. They can indeed reliably function in a wood working
shop.

I've read more stuff here that concerns me than what I've seen and
experienced with the attentiveness and capability of the kids I've worked
with.

I personally don't see a problem in any of these pics. At least the
operator appears to be concentrating on the task at hand. In fact, the only
time i ever use a push stick is for ripping narrow pieces with a TS. I
would rather guide things with my hands if possible, but i run WW machinery
for a living, and am comfortable with that. I DO pay careful attention to
where my fingers are in relation to the danger areas.BTW, I still have all
my fingers attached and intact! --dave

I guess I am missing the reason for alarm. Yeah, I see a couple of pics
that make me a little nervous but snapshots don't always catch the action.
If the router example is the young lady in Orange, I can't imagine
controlling that block she is routing with a push stick - she has her hands
in a defensive position and unengaged fingers raised. The young fellow
using the shaper does bother me but I don't know if the right hand crossed
over the knife path or he just put it there.

It is easy to pick a shop class apart from a few pics. If you look at all
of them there appear to be some pretty well-trained hands and eyes among
that group.

impressive.

Shaper was the only one that really bothered me, too. I'm a stick and
featherboard guy.

Overarm router should have a pin underneath to follow the pattern, limiting
the danger.

I really like the middleschoolers' stuff. They've got a lot of enthusiasm
at that age, and they really like a quick project. Always a challenge to
get some sort of result quickly. I liked box-jointed boxes for the first
one. Teaches square and same size pieces, about a third of any woodworking
project.

It is easy to pick a shop class apart from a few pics. If you look at all
of them there appear to be some pretty well-trained hands and eyes among
that group.

I guess I am missing the reason for alarm. Yeah, I see a couple of pics
that make me a little nervous but snapshots don't always catch the action.

"Dylan" on the shaper, and "Tabatha" routing that small piece, were the only
ones that really made me want to say "be careful there". But the pictures
certainly may not give a proper perspective.

Pretty impressive work, though.

Your title reminded me of the old railroad ditty:

Uphill slow, downhill fast,
Tonnage first, safety last.

I suspect none of the machines were turned on when the pictures
were taken.

Some were - you can see the wood chips flying.

Can YOU pick out all the safety hazards in these photos?

The only thing that made me wince was seeing all those kids running banshees
(routahs) with no hearing protection.
