TABLE SAW:

I have to add: Also very efficient remover of finger pad/fingerprint when reaching to stop the launching of said wood projectile. Gives a good excuse for 1) not washing dishes 2) not washing car 3) not washing motorcycle 4) not doing anything that jeopardizes healing for about two months. Of course it also gives a good reason to evaluate the local EMT's and hospital emergency room. However it does hinder the activity of operating a clutch lever on a motorcycle. Just sayin'.
