    You guys should have seen the safety video they made us watch in school. Machinist never wore safety glasses, been sharpening drill bits for 40 years.. 2 weeks before he’s ready to retire the grinding wheel stone explodes while he’s sharpening a drill bit… now the guy gets to enjoy his retirement as a blind man.
    Really makes you think about how quickly something bad can happen.. and a lifetime to remember it.

    I never use safety glasses when using any power tool. I love the feeling of knowing i could instantly die from a flying splinter of wood at any given moment.

    And if doesn’t start wearing them he won’t see anything either. Safety contacts don’t count. As a shop instructor I cringe every time I see someone using a power tool with such blatant disregard for their own well being. People watching this video are trying to learn from an experienced woodworker and will learn everything they see.
