RE; There Was Blood - Safety, Some Sites For Learning

[Michael Magness]

Hi Ed, Sorry your book didn't turn out to be so good. Glad you survived and
I'm glad you didn't miss that tuning, been there myself.
I wasn't bleeding, I had a part of a burdock lodged in my cornea which the
walk-in Doc mistook for an infection, 5 days later I could hardly open that
eye and had a concert tuning that afternoon!
My wife drove me in to see my eye guy who removed the burdock and put me on
the right eyedrops, I went home and slept for 2 hours, got up, dressed and
drove 40 miles in a snow storm to do that tuning, under flourescent lights,
wearing dark sunglasses(my eye was still partially dilated.

For Joel, David, Fenton, ED and anyone else myself included,

I guess Ed's book isn't a source, I took shop in Jr High and High school so
I have the rudiments from those years but find myself not being as careful
as I should. I googled power tool safety and found some good info on

http://www.toolcrib.com/blog/2007/08/22/the-seven-golden-rules-of-power-tool-safety/
These 3 sites are all from that site and there are more, I just found these
to be the most informational IMHO.
Basic Woodshop Safety
Shop Safety Checklist
Using your Woodworking Tools Safely (in depth stuff from About.com)

For those of you who wish to, there is a wealth of free info under shop
safety, tool safety as well as power tool safety, on google, just pick and
choose what seems like the best approach to your personal style and dig in.
Mike
