In Response To: Tools: Embarrassing (John Monfoe)

I've found that when working with dangerous tools that if things are not right I get a feeling. On my good days I stop and take a look before proceeding. On my bad days I don't. I've found that this feeling is accurate enough to pay very serious attention to, fortunatly I've not had any serious accidents, but after a few close calls (I took my glove off while re-sawing shake with the band saw) I tend to listen to the inner idiot. I'm sorry about your thumb John. Thank you for the wake-up call.
Bob
