I think the time to worry about accidents is when you are extremely confident you have bombproof habits. A justified touch of nervous fear is likely a good thing.

I agree. Fear is your friend. And remember to fear most when you're tired, ready to quit or distracted. You need to cultivate a little voice in your ear reminding you of, Danger, Danger, Will Robinson!

BTW, I wear tight gloves as well. Cedar splinters are really annoying.

When you wear close fitting leather gloves, and see how fast they wear out, you'll realize the punishment your hands take.

Your #1 tools are your hands, protect them and take care of them.
