re: Sawstop

I was running 2″ × 3/8 " x 30 " pieces through my 4 inch jointer planner , I had the back stop set at 45% , I was just knocking the square edge off the 4 corners of the pieces . things were going good and I kind of got going faster and faster . Well the piece snagged on something and stopped . My hand slipped off the piece . The tip of my ring finger on my left hand is is at about 45% and the tip of my middle finger got cut up but healed nicely . This accident was fully on me , It was going so smoothly that I let my guard down . I use a lot more caution now.
