I’ve been kicking this can down the road for years, but I finally got a job that involves cutting so much melamine board there’s no way I’m doing it with a circular saw.
I watched multiple safety videos before even opening the package, and now I’m just sitting here staring at it wondering whether I should fire it up and cut off a finger or two. I’m fucking terrified of this thing.


A healthy fear of the table saw is what has kept me safe all these years. Fear it, respect it when you use it.
Exactly, it is when you get complacent that shit happens.
