About Your Safety:
Working with wood is inherently dangerous. Using hand or power tools
improperly or ignoring safety practices can lead to permanent injury or even death. Don’t try to
perform operations you learn about here (or elsewhere) unless you’re certain they are safe for
you. If something about an operation doesn’t feel right, don’t do it. Look for another way. We
want you to enjoy the craft, so please keep safety foremost in your mind whenever you’re in
the shop.
For my wife, Susan.
