You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.
I learned the hard way about kickback. It felt like Myke Tyson saying hello to you
Yep, I've picked up a finger laying on the floor from a kickback, wasn't my finger fortunately. It belonged to a guy who we affectionately called Frodo afterwards. Also been hit by a kickback, it usually leaves a mark or two.
Warning: Pieces of wood were injured during this demo. LOL
I liked the slo mo at the end with the music.
Mutilating dead tree carcasses!
I was waiting for Steve ramsey to do one of his intros and get cut off with the microjig. When he said 'if you don't know what a grrripper is..' I thought that was going to be the moment. Shout out to Steve for making the grrripper known to weekend woodworkers everywhere!
I watch Steve too. He doesn't do the microjig intro anymore.
@@nathanrocks2562 I know he stopped it a long time ago but he's still the first one I think when I here 'microjig!'
Yeah sponsoring Steve was the smartest marketing Microjig ever did
His intros were the best. I occasionally go back and watch the beginning of some of his old videos just for the micro jig intros that make me laugh.....that's where I'm headed now that I think about it.
That last half of the video....a masterpiece. Easily a contender for some kind of academy award!
Seriously, though, I should buy a Grrr-riper, but I need a table saw first.
Maybe do another version of this video buy use Symphony of Destruction instead?
Hahahaha
This is a brilliant and informative video. Kudos for creating a safe way to demonstrate something so crucial to understanding and using the table saw.
That slow motion footage with that music was video production gold!
WOW! What a great example of how and why kickback occurs. It shows the physics really well, and the importance of good controls. One issue I saw was your riving knife was much further away from the blade than I was taught, which would mean that in some of your examples the kick back chances would have been reduced (but maybe not entirely eliminated). Great demo anyway.
"I'm just making a quick cut. Nothing has ever happened."
@Ahmed FaheemAhmed I think he was quoting the infamous last words of a man who just suffered kick back
You're totally right... This is attitude is the cause of most injuries

Thanks for the vid!! I watch a lot of accident videos. Not because I’m sadistic; because I don’t want to make the same mistakes.
I bought the gripper when I first bought my tablesaw and am glad I did it works awsome one of my best purchases.
Excellent safety video - very thought provoking
I've had two memorable kickback incidents. The first one just scared me a bit but didnt' do any damage. The second one tore a 3" hole in my leather apron. Now I use Jessem rollers and stand at the side of the table whenever possible.
You're very lucky because my husband got his thumb cut off when it happened to him. You guys all need to be extremely careful!!
Only 2?
I own the mircojig gripper. Its the absolute best push stick Ive ever owned.
Excellent video! And you have managed to be both self-serving and public-serving at the same time, and no hard feelings! Got my sub immediately for the thoughtfully designed demonstration.
I was spared the experience of one particular kickback event. Came to work to find glass littering my bench. Newest guy in the shop had been ripping mahogany for door panels on the Yates. Only 5hp, but they were good horses. A 16"x 24" piece of 8/4 escaped his control, climbed the blade and exited the machine room through the window and into the bench room. He was shaken, but not injured. I kept the plywood cart parked as a shield after that, until we rearranged. Plywood storage rack took the place of the window.
There is an old saying that to be successful, you need to help others be successful. This is our goal.
Love the opera music at the end! Lol my favorite push back is the one where the cut off piece bounces back and the blade throws it again!
Subbed for the music alone 😂. Great demo of something that can go wrong very quickly.
Excellent demonstration of kickback. The part with the slow mo and opera made me think of the astronauts floating around in zero gravity in the space station.
The BEST! Thank You, keep up the hard work.
Love the Mozart at the end. You’re my kind of guy… for both demo and the musical taste.
I was hit by a kickback in high school using a commercial size table saw and was struck by the 2” wide peace of wood. It happened so fast. I was hit in the hip. It hurt but I wasn’t injured but it messed me up psychologically. It took me a while to get my confidence back to use the table saw again. All woodworking machinery and power tools should be respected and used properly or they will bite you.
I do not think the flying wood is the main danger but those keeping their hands on the wood close to the blade is he biggest danger of all.
@@bighands69 agreed but getting hit by a flying peace of wood is no joke. I’ve seen wood penetrate a cinder block wall.
@@ScottyLo
The flying wood requires a lot of force and direction and I feel it is a lower probability. I think the main danger is when the wood kicks and your hand gets drawn into the blade presents a much higher danger.
@@bighands69 agreed. Any accident with power tools has the potential for a really bad outcome.
I learn the hard way. First and last time, I had a chunk of walnut hit my knuckle so hard I instantly felt it in my elbow ,and for days later.
I am planning to make a DIY table saw. Thanks you showed us of the dangers of using table saws. I will try to make a DIY push block too.
just wondering if you're still in one piece these days
I can see myself getting hit with the flying blocks at slow motion with Opera Background music. Hahaha.
Big help with this man...😊
Good job. I was able to make one automatic that works on 12 volts
За пилой ставится расклинивающий нож. На нём может крепиться горизонтальный прижим и проблема будет решена.
Well done, thank you
At the shop in my school once kickback occurred and it shot a piece to the brick wall, exploded and a piece of shrapnel broke my classmate's arm. The student was about 30 feet away from the table saw.
Holy crap.
Good tip
I suffered kickback once. Was cutting MDF and my splitter had nudged to the side unbeknownst to me. Mid cut it hits the splitter stopping me progressing. I swear, take one hand off to hit the estop. Blink. And the MDF is just GONE. Was like warp speed meets Houdini. Luckily I had early adopted standing to the side, never in line with the main forces. Would have left quite the bruise that’s for damn sure. Lesson I learned, check all safety devices before any first use of the day at least.
Loved the music will play this video just for the music at parties
thanks for this v useful video. What is the music at the end, i like it!
hehe finally a vidio where you really see what can go wrong. am a carpenter myself. you went to school yourself for a few years to learn the trade, and how to work with different machines, and how to use and safety. now see videos of what you can do with a table saw. everyone now thinks they are a carpenter and I can make anything, but scared how they deal with it just dangerous. without a riving knife, and guard. you have shown nicely what is going wrong. just got goosebumps. would also like a video about safety and dangers of the table saw, because see none in Dutch. could i use your piece in it. let me know a comment. regards johny van assouw
I have lots of dangerous saws but table saws scare the living fuck out of me. I keep thinking about buying one but so far i've not had the balls to get one. Never used one so it would be baptism by fire.
In my experience it is the trained professionals who remove the safety equipment.
The blade guard, riving knife, and feather board work together to prevent kickback on my saw.
@Sparta 16 yes. But i dont tapered or dado cuts. I use kreg screws.
You can't use a blade guard to do a dado or non through cut
@Alan d'Eon what brand is that because i might actually get one if it wasn't in the way all the time
I have always imagined a good mounting for a blade guard would be from the ceiling. A sturdy truss slanting up and away in the outfeed direction, and hinged to fold up out of the way at times.
I was thinking of producing a plexiglass box with an infeed slot to peotect me from kickback and my hand getting too close. I want to.keep my fingers.
Those push sticks are crap anyway, we make our own out of 3/4"plywood, it's somewhat of a half oval 8" long straight cut on the bottom with a 1/4" notch cut out on the end to push material thru, as long as the material rides flush against the fence you'll never get a kick back.
IMGO a gripper is one of the best gifts you can give a new woodworker!
I have this and it’s great. I’ve also reduced my chances of getting hurt by dropping $5000 on a new sawstop.
I want to see the normal speed. It's kind of difficult to tell how fast it happens in slow motion.
I won't claim to know more than this guy, because I don't. But I fail to see how a piece of wood would hit the rear of the blade with a riving knife in place. Sadly this isn't explained or shown in the video.
Seeing how it's basically an ad for the Gripper, a viewer is left to assume that the riving knife wasn't demonstrated because it severly lessens the need for their tool.
True, same reason they didn't show the proper way to use a push stick
It is reckless and irresponsible to even demonstrate any improper use of any machine.
Check the kickback video by thintz12 where his push block gets pulled into the blade. I would not like to have my hand straight over the blade, or lean over the blade at any time. With two push sticks this never happens. I know it's an ad, but I also agree that trying to scare people by producing kickbacks with a single and improperly used pushstick and no rivingknife (standard on all tablesaws you can buy today) is bordering on safety misinformation.
@
OmikronWeapon I am far older then that guy... and I work my whole life in Woodworking... and I agree with you fully. Normally you would use a riving knife whenever you cut off a piece like shown, only if you not cut off something but just make some cut like with dado blades for some insert you would not use a riving knife. And then even without riving knife as soon as you not make a cut off... you have the whole board to push down.
It seems like a sophisticated ad for the Gripper.
That being said, I think a tool like the Gripper is probably better... then a push stick. There are many things that can happen with those... but you also not need to spend money on a push stick like that... one is easily made from some wood and a rubber-like material.
If the workpiece is shorter than the blade diameter, it's separated before it touches the riving knife so the side of the teeth can pick it up...or is my brain twisted now? 😂
My dad (RIP) had cut his hand on a table saw while trying to finish some speaker boxes he was making.
Visionaire TV Rest in peace for your dad.
@dafuqawew no he died of cancer.
God's good rest to your father.
I'm in a rush to get a big job down i just cannot get my table saw knife and blade cover on after it was removed by my d.h..
Its a hitache the two are connected. Looks a lot like the saw table your using. Do you have a video for that?
Thanks for the Mozart. :)
I got hit by kickback in the chest that hurts.. so fast I dint have time to move .. well the ribin knife got lose it fell down that’s why .. I upgrade to quality table saw .. it’s important to have quality table saws
I always use an extra long straight screwdriver , never any issues as long as you use some muscle on it
Could you please conduct the same experiments with riving knife?
Wat bat the blade saw kick back ? Any demo
Listening to Opera music and kick backs video is like watching car crashes while drink beer on busy highway
Why not promote a guard rather than a gripper?
Company that makes the gripper is showing me why it’s so important that I use it. Not biased at all.
I purchased a Microjig right after my accident when cutting 1/4" plywood. Shot right into my gut creating a 9-10" wound. Not fund. It going on two weeks and it is still not healed completely.
Ja aconteceu comigo e foi dolorido. Feriu minha barriga. Hoje uso avental de couro e protetor facial
Hi, I don't know much about wood working but my husband loves it. I ran across your channel and thought you might be able to answer a question for me. My husband had an accident while using his table saw and cut off his left thumb after a kickback. something has happened to the splitter part. Do you have any idea where one can be found as he hasn't had any luck at finding a replacement for it. Sure would appreciate it if you could help with any knowledge of these.
We are deeply sorry to hear of your husband's accident. Microjig is all about safe woodworking.
Newer saws are required by law to have a riving knife, which is different than a splitter.
Not knowing your husband's saw make and model, we have no way of helping find the splitter. They usually can be bought as replacement parts unless the saw is very old or long out of production.
Most older saws used the bracket for the blade guard as a splitter, but that design has always been flawed.
A good riving knife is a major safety item and should be used whenever possible, but we do make our MJ Splitters as a retrofit for older saws that do not have a proper riving knife available.
Karen, our MJ Splitters do work with the Powermatic Saw, we have one here in our shop. Please feel free to email us at support@microjig.com or call us at (855) 747-7233 and we can help you.
The most notorious thing to actually kickback is plywood... I'll never forget using a large table saw in shop class in high school that thing shot back like a missile into my upper thigh I had a bruise about 8" x 4" for a few months..I was cutting a piece of plywood Pretty large piece.. Never had trouble with regular wood I knew better not to cut where there's a knot
Happened me cutting a 9mm sheet of osb, kicked back broke my hand an left a massive bruise on my stomach. An that’s me using one everyday for for 10+ years.
This is my favourite build I've seen on yt fuck making a workbench or table etc imma make a death box
When I was an apprentice we used to face the rip saw toward the wall then throw drawer fronts on to the blade and see who could stick one deepest into the wall seemed fun at the time though in hindsight 🤕🥺
Usually you take one of those wood chunks direct shot to the nut sac.
What song is this, I like it
At least someone conducted a more control and safe kickback demonstration than that jackass that pushed a piece of wood through with his hand less than an inch from the blade.
Nice song..
I'm here for the opera!
Man your blade guard is huge. Where'd you get that thing?
I was fortunate enough to learn about kickback cutting some hard foam. Thank God it wasn't wood.
I do own a GRR RIPPER but if I had to make more than one of those parts I’d change it up. Rip a long board first then crosscut the blocks
Exactly. The cut they're doing is by far the most likely to cause kickback. It's an unsafe cut. Use a miter saw or a crosscutting jig with clamps and the issue goes away.
@@mychalevenson7710 agreed
Should've got with Adam Savage and had a ballistics gel dummy on the receiving end of the kickback.
Hmmm... Wonder how many of those injuries are due to not having the anti-kickback device and riving knife and blade cover in place?
I use the guard, knife and anti kickback pawls? The Gripper is for those folks who don't use the guard, correct?
You are correct, the GRR-RIPPER is not compatible with blade guards. We would never tell you to do anything that you are uncomfortable doing in your own shop, but remember that you cannot really use a blade guard for fence settings less than about 1", and that GRR-RIPPERs are awesome at the router table, band saw and jointer as well as the table saw.
I just got mine, there's no way I'm risking seriously injury for what's supposed to be a fun hobby.
But one isn't enough, I'm getting another one. Unless you're cutting very short stock, get yourself 2.
I always stand off to the side never in front of the wood and I practice and rehearse the cut several times until I’m ready to plug in the saw and make the cut.
Being thoughtful at your work is always going to be your safest course.
Pretty good advertisement for Gripper. It does work tho
I love my Gripper!
And we love to hear that!
Na demonstração da para ver nitidamente que não há empunhadura nenhuma que faça com que o pedaço de madeira fique estabilizado na circular.
I once lost a thumb nail and took a chunk of 1x4 to the chest getting in a hurry....take your time and be safe
Caught a small one in the face once. It felt like it had ripped a good size hole in my face. Not much damage but he'll it hurt.
Circumference 10 x 3.14 = 31.4 inches. At 4000 rpm x31.4 x 60 minutes it makes for about 119 mph
Don't let the board get away from you. I've stopped a blade a time or two. Also don't stand in the path behind the saw between the fence and the blade. Never walk behind someone cutting on a table saw, always walk is front of the saw.
These types of push sticks are designed to be used in pairs really. Doing that it is safer than using a push block/gripper that encourages you to take off the blade guard completely.
A gripper without a blade guard is safer than push sticks with a blade guard
@@lancedamask9728 if passing your hand and arm over an unguarded blade feels safe for you, knock yourself out....it’s your workshop :)
@@amiddled the gripper is a blade guard used properly
Funny, I have been looking at table saws for just some DIY home improvement at home. There is ZERO warning label or signage about the importance of kickback by the table saws. Not that we need to make yet another law but Lowes, Home Depot and other big boxes stores know the risks and know that aggressive lawyers will sue if possible. Why not do both the honest right thing and educate the buys a bit (it is the DIYers that have the most risk) and insulate themselves from potential lawsuits at the same time???
because you're supposed to read manual before using the equipment? That solves lawyers and extra effort of training staff, putting up warnings for every machine etc.
I am not sure where you live. But my table saw can pre-installed with a knife, blade top guard, a moveable featherboard, a angle guide, and two plastic push sticks.
It took a lot of work to remove some of the stupider safety features and it was darn near impossible to take the knife off with out taking the machine apart (I left it on - on purpose).
Most major diy brands assume your stupid and will not read the manual. It helps keep lawyer costs down. Lol
Dewalt have an entire page on kickback in the manual.
Diyers have no business using a table saw
@@scotland1380 I think (especially during the pandemic) a lot of people took up woodworking as a hobby. Everyone has to start somewhere.
My wood shop teacher was an alcoholic from the 80s when my parents had him until the 90s when i had him.....he got cut on the table saw while he was drunk....he went to florida after he got fired and drank himself to death after 10 yrs
Just use the blade guard instead of fancy push blocks which force you to remove the blade guard for them to function.
You can do you. If you like your blade guard, use it.
The blade guard must be removed for groove and dado cuts, and any cuts under about 1" wide. It also blocks my view of where the cutting is actually happening. Finally, blade guards do nothing to prevent the kickback that can happen when the stock engages the rear teeth of the blade. The GRR-RIPPER does.
my schools one of their table saws kicked back about 10 or more years ago and flew into the metal door
Thanks. This is why we make the GRR-RIPPER!
I think the Slow Mo Guys have ruined me.
I hear super slow motion and I think of 2500+ FPS
Yes, i was dissapointed.
The opera makes this video super dramatic..🤣🤣🤣👍👍
man my uncle had such an incident 2 days ago. it broke his nose ,had fractures all over his face. had to get surgery
and i was wondering how the accident happened . thanks for the information
So sorry to hear that, hope he recovers quickly
Ya ,he is doing ok for now
@@vishnuanugrah4472 Good to hear. Get him a pair of GRR-RIPPERs before he gets back into the shop.
Bravo!!...by italy
i’m beginner and i see that obvious because the wood cuts are small, but if they were long that shouldn’t happen and if you want it small just cut it to the side and it’s even faster. That’s what I’m thinking but that I see in small cuts like dangerous
David, it is true that smaller parts can kick back more easily, but longer boards still can. I have seen longer boards launched like spears. If a longer board drifts into the blade as shown in this video, it can kick back and then it can ride on top of the blade, increasing in speed as the blade propels it like a baseball pitching machine.
The GRR-RIPPER helps prevent these sorts of kick back by holding both halves of the part parallel to the blade so they are less likely to catch on the rear teeth of the blade. With longer stock, you use two GRR-RIPPERs, one in each hand, in a hand-over-hand motion to control the stock.
The bonus is you also get better quality cuts.
🤣🤣 the opera music at the end with the slomos is on point!
Im always wearing full face repirator and stay to right of table.
What if we design a table saw that the user has to pull the material instead of push. That way the user can be out of the way of a kickback.
song name?
BRAVA!!!!!!

Not angling the wood into a blade with no riving knife works well in my experience...
Looks like no one said!
But dude, you're handsome!♥️🇳🇵
Please what the gender the last song sing????
Who is going to be buying me that ridiculously expensive push block? I know I'm not buying the damn thing!
I'll keep using my block of plywood that costs next to nothing!
The End Music is awsome old cartoons
A riving knife prevents all of those kick backs idc what that guy says. If the wood trys to kick back before it gets past the blade it can't it will just cut. If they could produce these results with a riving knife on they would have. This is bs
you can get kickback with incorrect use even if you have a riving knife. I've seen it happen to inexperienced users.
So two minutes later he explains...but I never push the push stick along the fence.
That saws got some serious wobble going on. What did you do to it?
Kickbacks are bad for the blade and can knock a saw out of alignment. There is a lot of energy in a kickback, some of it goes into the saw through the blade.
The saw in the video is a much higher grade of saw than what I own. I would guess that its bearings handled the abuse without getting very sloppy. So I suspect that just the blade got bent. On my light weight, low cost table saw, the bearings and frame would probably suffer after few hundred kickbacks.
@@hamjudo Could be. I just noticed the wobble before the cutting even started. Almost like they staged a kickback scene. Which is fine. They make a good product. I even bought one.
