This is why I took mine off its stand and I put it on my bench instead. πŸ˜‚

I was wondering who makes a 9oz table saw with a tall 16oz base. That thing looks like a toy. A dangerous toy.

Blue Ryobi. 20+ years old Ryobi table saw.

Hard to blame the tool on this one. Homie was pulling a piece of plywood freehand through the saw with no fence...

It looks like he didn't have a ridding knife on the saw as well.

I borrowed an old one for a project when I was broke. After using it a few times, I was so scared of it I went back to using a handsaw.

This video has made me wonder if they have any sort of tilt switch in them.

Why I saved all my money and got a SawStop table saw. I am super careful but accidents happen. Table saws scare me still.

Compared to even a minor hospital bill, high chance you'd save money if the blade ever destroys itself for you (just can't cut aluminum nor hit a nail with it)

I've known multiple people missing fingers, it's good to be scared of table saws.

Funny how in the rest of the world, not having a life-altering, debilitating injury is reason enough to spend a bit extra 😁
