"Anything is dangerous in the wrong hands." Now you make my point for me, Jon. You've cast your photo and recommendation out into the ether to potentially be used unseen and unknown by craftsmen and fools alike, and those who fall between. There has been a fair amount of discussion on this topic at this point, and I think it is fair to note that you are not getting a lot of support for the use of this jig. While I definitely count myself amongst those who have done stupid things with dangerous power tools and have lived to tell about it (so far), I would also note that some of our more respected craftsmen on this list are pulling their hands back in horror at the sight of your tool. Because of their reputations, their sense of caution deserves to be noted.
