I got an early lesson that I still adhere to.I was working with my cousin to build some speaker boxes using his radial arm saw.A piece was cut and I grabbed the piece before the blade had stopped.My finger was 1 inch from the still moving blade.My cousin pointed out how stupid I was and now I always keep my hand away from blades until FULLY STOPPED.A sharp,slow moving saw blade can still shred a finger.Make sure to count fingers after working for the day.If you still got 10,you had a good day of woodworking.Keep your blades and mind sharp.
