I took a Table saw "uses and safety" class at the Woodcrafters in Sterling Hts. MI several years ago. The instructor said "belly up to the bar..." it meant to stand exactly where you just instructed. Shortly after that, an experienced woodworker was doing his cut and had a kickback that propelled the board back and up which made a serious dent in the HVAC piping in the ceiling. Had he not "bellied up to the bar" he would have been seriously injured. Great video, keep them coming.

You're right about kickback. Forgot to put riving knife in. Got hit very hard on the stomach. But didn't learn from that one. A few minutes later got whacked again in the same place. Huge bruises. Thank goodness there was enough Fat insulation to not have been any more serious than it was. Just a purple left side and a bruised rib. Learned my lesson for sure.

Good one, JKM. I’ve been an ER doc for 32 years, and I can confirm from my own practice that table saws cause more injuries than any other power tool… and as you say, these can be LIFE-CHANGING. For a little perspective: having to learn how to wipe your butt with your non-dominant hand because you cut your fingers off your dominant hand is only one example of “life-changing”. Yes, buying a SawStop is a great option, but using the tips outlined in this video is just as valid for most of us woodworkers.

One method I use to minimize risk with a table saw is to use it as little as possible. A track saw can do most cuts especially when combined with a MFT type set up, much easier for cutting sheet goods. Then next is the miter saw for many cross cuts, which is not without risk, but is safer than a table saw if used with care. For dados I have my router and router table as options. Not without risk, of course. One advantage to minimizing the table saw is you can use a smaller table saw. Thank you for the excellent video. Much appreciated.

This video didn’t present anything I didn’t know, but it reinforced almost everything I need to be doing around my saw. In my case the problem was not lack of knowledge but the ineffective use of that knowledge because I was in a hurry. Thank you every reminder helps!

As a new woodworker i have watched numerous videos like yours to help me be very careful. I stand just as you suggest when using the table saw. I recently had a kickback that sent my wood 40 ft up my drive way....if i had been in front of it, that would have been quite a "punch". It was a good first experience because i didnt get hurt, but i saw how strong the kickback really is. I respect the power of the saw!

You point out good safety tips for beginners. 40 years ago I was ripping Oak 1" and reached over the table saw and cut my index finger on the right hand and took my fingernail off the middle finger. I now never reach over the saw blade only if it is NOT running and ALWAYS use push stick. I can't have a Losse time accident because I'm a self-employed furniture builder, 36 years. Thank you.

Great video, I was relieved to see that I was already these safety things already except the push stick staging thing. Great tip. One thing I have noticed about feather board safety is to never use one with a board that is at already milled or the same width along the length of the board. Your method of using a manual stick of wood behind the blade so you have some control is the best way to handle trimming a rough edge.

Great advice all around. I’m going to pick up your thin rip jig; that thing looks super helpful. Yesterday I was ripping some 8/4 walnut and maple for cutting boards and the 3/4 and 1 inch thick strips seemed too close to the fence so I did them with cuts of the blade only raised half way up then rotated each piece to cut the other side. Jon Peters did a good demo of that once. That’s the only tip I would add to your impressive list.

Now I have a KM Tools apron that I wear, which I feel would have greatly minimized the injury I sustained. Since that injury I also upgraded from an old Craftsman contractor saw to a SawStop PCS. I feel much safer in my shop now and always try to be mindful of safety. Keep the great content coming!

More research to do and I'll start by searching your video catalog.

Another great vid, JKM! I, too, like using shop-made, wooden push blocks. In a movie mill-shop, we normally make them out of good plywood. They often get grooved enough to where they are no longer safe. I like to take those, trim the damage off, glue on a piece of solid wood, and re-profile the shoe. It's a lot quicker than fabricating new ones, and I find the solid wood more durable than the laminations.

Thank you for your emphasis on safety. I would love to see people explain what I think is the greatest benefit from a featherboard: it blocks your hand from getting to the blade. I had a close call last year, cutting into my index finger of my left hand. I can only thank God for keeping me from cutting off my fingertip. Before I made another cut on the table saw, I got a featherboard. I use it for every cut I can, and it keeps me from getting anywhere near the blade.

JKM, you really do some of the best safety content in the woodworking space of YT, so thanks, even though it's just a 'refresher' for many of us here. Two thoughts, no trolling intended: 1) I am not a fan of plastic push devices because they tend to shatter if they contact the blade; 2) Building routines and habits as you say is crucial, and one thing I do that the Army drilled into me is a rehearsal - I started woodworking actually physically rehearsing my cuts, and now stop to pause and visualize myself, my motions and and follow-through to make sure I haven't missed anything. From time to time, you'll actually catch yourself before a totally sketchy cut.

My saw (and this is probably not unusual in modern saws) has a great big paddle-style switch hanging out at the left end of the fence rail. So another advantage of standing to the left of the blade is that, in the event of a problem during a cut, I can turn my saw off without taking my hands off the work piece (or, more appropriately, my push stick) by just bumping my hip against the switch plate.

Great video for new workers and experienced. Thank you. You covered pretty much everything I could think of except...the stuff you wear. (Yes you mentioned aprons.) I'm talking about gloves, loose shirts and cuffs, neckties, loose hats, necklaces (anything worn around your neck), long hair, and anything else that could be entangled in moving parts and drag you in. I once saw a guy with long hair get it caught in the highspeed rollers of a printing press, and had his head slammed against the side of the press. I'd hate to think of what could happen at a table saw or other woodworking tools.

Hi, great video, thank you for doing this! You mentioned time to grease your saw, what grease do you use? Or have you done a maintenance video for your tools?

Great vid. I would love to see this video adopted to the European type sliding saws as well.

I'm left handed and standing toward the right side of the fence is perfectly natural for me. I make an effort to keep my workpiece pulled into the fence and I work hard to avoid kickback. I hadn't previously thought about the kickback "danger zone" you highlighted. Next time I'm in the shop I'm going to check carefully to see if I'm out of the path of kickback. Thanks

Mr. K-M, I highly appreciate all that you do to promote shop safety, for pros and beginners alike. Maybe you could be sure to tell that guy way in the left background using the grinder that ties and rotating machine tools don't mix, eh?

Great video. All new users of a table saw should get their KM table saw licence, just a like a car licence. It makes sense when more people are hurt this way than in a car. Thank you your video will have saved many injuries.

New woodworker here, and I thought the saw blade height had to be set so the bottom of the blade gullets are even with the top of the material for maximum material evacuation. Definitely knew to keep the blade low, but not as low as you showed. Thank you!

I haven't used a table saw in years. I was amazed ar how much I had forgotten. This video probably saved me from making many of these mistakes. What I really liked was the thoroughness in which every issue was explained. THANK YOU! My hands and face thank you too. Best and most useful video I've seen in years.

The main thing with any tool is keep your body parts away from the business end, wear proper PPE, keep the safety shields in place, and stand to the side when you can..

I think these videos are great. you and stumpy. both make them. I have a delta cabinet saw bought it used. it had no riving knife I made my own. it is higher then my blade. I have to take it out when i dont cut all the way though. I have used a table saw almost daily for almost 50 years. I was resawing with the table saw. I took my riving knife off, and had a kick back. my left hand got pulled into the blade. I had a push stiick in my right hand but not my left hand I never use to because my left hand would stay way away from the blade.well I was lucky . I got a bad cut.on my left index finger. It grinds it up. the Dr. could not stitch it up but it will heal fine. thanks for these videos they have helped me a lot. who says you cant teach a old dog new tricks.
