    The author does like to from scratch, czcams.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.

      In October of 2017, I cut my left index finger by trying to cut a tiny piece of cherry shoe base moulding at a 45 degree mitre angle without using the zero clearance fence (plus I had taken my blade guard off of my mitre saw). Needless to say, I was rushing and didn't allow the blade to get up to full speed before making my cut with my left index finger holding the piece of shoe base against the saw fence within an inch of the saw blade and when the teeth made contact with the wood it caught and kicked the piece of wood, pulling it (along with my left hand/index finger) into the rotating blade. Chewed up my finger pretty bad. Happened so fast. I immediately grabbed my finger and squeezed it firmly with my right hand and could feel bone protruding and I knew I had just nearly chopped it off. I was working on a jobsite at a customer's house and didn't have my guys working that day (I'm a self employed finish carpentry contractor who specializes in interior trim work/moulding) so it was just me and the homeowner/customer there. I knew I needed to go to the hospital immediately but couldn't drive myself cause I couldn't release the pressure I was exerting with my right hand. So I went into the house and told the homeowner that I needed her to take me to the hospital. She dropped me off at the emergency room and left and when I showed my finger (or what was left of it) to the ER paramedic, he said, "Oh wow, ok you can continue to apply pressure to it (squeeze it). I'm not going to lie. It's bad. It's really bad. One of the worst injuries I've seen and I've seen everything."
      I said, "That's what I was trying to tell you!"
      So, to make a short story long, what had happened was the saw teeth had ripped and shredded along the side of my index finger, causing multiple bone fractures and the severing of a lot of nerves and tendons as well as chunking out the muscle and tissue right along the side of my finger from the first/top/end joint (distal interphalangeal) to the tip of my index finger (so about an inch or so of my finger or about 25% of the overall length of my finger). After hours of waiting for something to help the pain, they finally numbed it with something similar to what dentists use to numb your gums (i.e. Novacaine or Lytocaine). Then I overheard the nurse and X-Ray technician discussing the situation and that it was definitely going to have to be amputated. I wasn't shocked when I heard that but it was still hard to hear, even though I had already realized my left index finger was pretty much toast. I tried to take solace in the fact that I'm right handed and pretty much do everything with my right hand because the left has always been basically retarded, weak, and uncoordinated so I was momentarily consoled that it was not my right index finger. The consolation, however, was short lived when a haunting thought came to my mind; that one of my favorite hobbies was playing the guitar and, being a righty, I strum with my right hand and my left hand does the fingering along the fretboard (pressing down the strings). That's when it really hit me how significant it was going to be to lose my left index finger, in part or whole. And it wasn't just thinking about not being able to play the guitar again without great difficulty (or at least not well) and thinking about other things that would be more difficult if not impossible to do (like rock climbing which I enjoyed although I wasn't a climbing fanatic like friends of mine are), but I was also contemplating, with dread, the aesthetic implications; by the sheer grotesqueness of becoming an amputee; a gimp, forever (I was very superficial and vain when this happened). I thought they were going to have to amputate at least half of my finger. But it turns out they were able to salvage everything below the first finger joint (the distal interphalangeal). So I ended up losing about an inch of my finger. Totally sucked and it took me about a year to be able to play the guitar without the pain being overbearing, but now I can pretty much play at the same skill level (or lack thereof) that I was at before the accident. The moral of the story is to be safe when using power tools and learn how to do things the right way, safely before taking risks that could change your life forever. It tends to happen so fast, in a split second, and your life is forever changed. And there are so many far worse/more serious stories of accidents involving power tools than my story. I consider my story to be quite mild by comparison and really ended up being something that made me reconsider my shallow, materialistic, vain, and Godless existence which ultimately led me to Christ which is worth infinitely more than losing part of my finger so I now consider it a blessing. God bless.
