I just experienced my first table saw kickback directly after telling my youngest son "that is not a safe place to stand". He says "why?" I tell him "just move go watch from inside the door." Nothing like proving a point sometimes it hurts to be right! Chunk of 1/4" plexi to the side at 200mph kind of stings. Bounced off me and went right past where little man was standing, hit my daughters bike so hard it bent the rim bounced off and put a hole in the garage door. My side feels like it's on fire. He says "daddy you ok?" " Yeah buddie I'm ok but it hurts like crazy. You see why I didn't want you to stand behind the saw?" I tell him.
I think high school wood shop may have just saved my kids life, with a lot of help from the Lord.
I don't think he will be standing behind any table saws. I'm sure he'll remember this one for a life time.
