We launch into day two of Safety Week with tips from Matt Berger, of our Getting Started in Woodworking series. When you hear “woodworking safety,” most woodworkers probably think of power tools, but hand tools can draw blood too. Berger has the scars to prove it. In this short video, he explains how to protect yourself from chisel and handsaw blades.
If you need further proof of hand tool dangers, hear hobbyist Scott Newsom explain how he severed four tendons and a nerve with a chisel in Ouch! a Web article about woodworking accidents.
