Hey, my grandpa made it to 78 before he finally punched off two finger tips in a wood splitter. Besides that he had never broken a bone or anything, just two knee surgeries after 45 years of basketball. I’m telling you, man was up 100ft on a ladder made during the Great Depression. Rolled over the mower once. Field fire, beekeeping, deep woods hunting/fishing, all sorts of dangers.
About three years ago, I amputated my left pointer and middle finger tips. And it can be really nerve-racking and depressing I play guitar so it was definitely upsetting, but you will work through it brother keep your head up and I’ll keep you in my prayers.
Man I’m sorry. Yea I’m a big mountain biker and I’m a bit worried about being able to grip the bars. I think it will work out though. In glad your doing alright. Just have to adapt and overcome 👊👊
I thought about this hypothetical situation before I read your comment. This isn’t widely known but Keith Richards said in his book that he had an incident as a kid where one of his fingers was cut off at a weird angle at the tip. I don’t think it was a full amputation but it affected his playing in a unique way. Praying for you buddy, hope you can find the silver lining in it.
@@dave6923 haha yea those are intense. I do not have one but I had a guy tell me the method for using one is “just hold on a pray to god” And that always stuck with me.
I had to show my 25 year old son your video. If 1/10 of the people out there had your outlook and work ethic we could change the World. I am 52 been in the trades for half my life, a month later I still would be crying in my beer, because of my ego. You sir are a Monster, keep up the amazing work 😎
Love your attitude regarding the accident and I really respect you telling the story as a precaution for other woodworkers. I'm sorry about your hand though, I'm sure its been tougher than you're letting on. I hope everything works out for you going forward. Beautiful table too
I used to love woodworking but the thought of losing a finger was something I could never shake. I'm an engineer and one of the hardest problems to solve in any field of engineering is human error. We solved how to do most things a while ago, now we just have to figure out how to do it safely. Whenever I build products, 20% of the work is making the thing turn on when you press the Start button and 80% making sure it doesn't catastrophically fail in any number of possible ways. A huge part of that second thing is accounting for all sorts of possible errors that people might make with your product. No one is perfect and we all make mistakes, sometimes incredibly serious mistakes, and I knew it would only be a matter of time before I made one.
One of the most beautiful tops I have seen in a long while . Sorry it came with such a high loss . My guess is that the saw blade got dull quickly cutting epoxy . Blades only cut well with consistent densities of wood .
The sawmill doing that is usually from a sudden change in the woods hardness. In my milling experience it has always been like a know or just a grain change and then it over corrects and goes all wavy. Another thing that can cause it is a change in speed of the milling or going to fast. Great video by the way
Thank you yea I’m thinking maybe the hardness of the resin through it off. Hard to believe it would do it that much but it’s got to have something to do with exactly that Thank you for watching 👊
Literal blood sweat and tears went into that table lol. Really sorry to hear about your injury, and I’m glad to see it hasn’t stopped you from your work
It waved, as you call it cos of the width of the cut. The sawdust has to go somewhere, and once the gullets are full, it causes the blade to push sideways.
I’ve been wood working for 14 years and have lost 2 fingers but I don’t let it sliw me down. My grandpa had 7 and he built his house and a yacht from scratch
Nerdforge also lost a finger in a woodworking accident and has a video on building herself a prosthetic -- she used an open-source 3D printable prosthetic that you might be interested in looking into.
Oof. I was mad to get my hand smacked by a piece of wood my jointer shot across the room. Out of all the things that can go wrong in the shop, I felt pretty fortunate that that was my reminder but it still killed my motivation for a while. Good on you for carrying on after losing a finger to a jointer!
Great job. I can definitely sympathize on the finger issue. I recently finished a table that damaged fingers on both hands. I was so upset and it started affecting my work. Then I realized that it’s not so much the “worth it” factor, or even the pain or physical inconvenience. It was that I felt so stupid for not remembering to adhere to my own shop rules about safety and focus. Question: Why didn’t you just peel or cut that last run of veneer all the way down at the particle board line and the just plane it down to the desired thickness?
My grandfather grew up in the Great Depression and survived WW2. When he was building his deck with my mom when she was a teenager, he took the safety off of the saw, and a knot in a piece of wood made it jerk and cut off his finger. He just calmly said f*** and then sat down silently waiting for the ambulance. Couldn’t be me but some people are just built different I guess. I’d love to get into carpentry, but hearing that incident my whole life has left me too scared to touch a saw.
Really great video man! It’s amazing you were able to accomplish such a great table and video with such a big setback. I had no interest in woodworking but the title got me and the quality of the video made me watch the entire thing. One thing the video needs is more doggos 😂 Hope all goes well for you 🤙
Good video, sorry about your fingers man. As far as improvement, seriously just try to mimic the edits and flow of a Foureyes Furniture or Blacktail Studios video. You can absolutely make it your own, but those two channels are excellent in the way they keep the attention of someone who isn’t really interested in building anything themselves (me). I think better audio goes a long way too but wait until you have a bigger following before you try and justify an expensive mic purchase. Other than that, just be excited about what you’re doing and the people will follow! Good luck to you and please stay vigilant around your tools! 🙂
I don't even know how I would live if I lost one of my fingers. I'm autistic, and one thing that really really triggers a strong reaction, sometimes even panic attacks, if somebody changes their appearance (including me) in a not immediately reversible way. Like a new haircut, a tattoo, or anything like that. I think I'd go crazy because of that.
Maybe it's time to grow up and stop blaming everything on your autism. People with autism a few decades ago were expected to be functioning members of the society too, no reason to stop that now.
Does that reaction persist or is it mostly something that happens the first few times you see the change? I hope I'm not offending you by asking, just curious.
@@Kingfisherwoodworks saw your other video and got to correct: I‘d have lost my whole arm and my mind. I guess you paid the absolute least possible price for that learning. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Not sure what caused the wave on the 4th cut but I can say from my experience re-sawing lumber on a bandsaw that when the blade dulls it pulls to one side and creates that warp (especially pronounced in thinker lumber).
all these things you did to finish those fingers, the cut out between the 2 wood fingers works way better than what my teacher in HS does, or at least tells us to do..
What you really needed to do with those veneer cuts, was support the piece once it's cut. At 4:10 you can see the cut veneer collapsing onto the slab. This is (A) giving sawdust nowhere to go, (B) pinching the back of the blade. Right at this point you want to put some wedges in there to support it, then as the saw moves down, progressively add some wedges into the sides to shim the veneer up off the slab.
So I noticed you’re getting comments from armchair sawyers, and I thought since you gave up a finger for this project you might like some thoughts from an experienced sawyer. I’ve been using a bandmill since 2009, it’s given me lots of opportunity to ruin a lot of wood lol. I’ve sawn in the range of 200-250,000 bd ft for context, so I think I’ve made almost every mistake there is to make. Anyways, I have had that same issue when sawing large, partially frozen green logs. When the logs are thawed or fully frozen it’s no problem, but partly frozen is a pain because of the significant mix of densities between the thawed and frozen wood. I think this is the same issue you are having because of the resin. The things I do to help with the issue is: - increase blade tension, - run a lower tooth / hook angle, if you’re using Wood-Mizer blades try a 4 degree, - slow the feed speed down by about 25 percent and to keep the blade speed up.
Thank you very much. Yes I think the resin/wood is one of the main reasons. This wood was incredibly dense and the resin be even more so, I would imagine gives a kind of frozen effect. I appreciate the expertise rather than just stating something obvious and then criticizing haha
Well damn that's a coincidence. Just about a month ago I got the tip of my middle finger pulped by a power planer I was using like a jointer. We should form a club or something, Nubbins United
I dont think i could ever part with a furnature that took an extremety off. The client can have the next table, this one has chosen to blood-bond with me. The omnissiah has been sated.
Brutal , I have a feeder for the jointer. 2 cents to stop next injury don't have 2 guys on a table saw its wrong on a lot of levels .Just break the sheet down and use a post stick for thin strips . Love the double plywood good video
They managed to reattach mine somehow and I gained about 85% mobility back over time, but it was touch & go for a few weeks, in which time I made complete peace with losing the function of my right middle finger, and honestly a single digit isn't that important in the grand scheme of things.
My family has a silver lab as well! I double took so hard when you showed your silver, I could have sworn that was my dog! Do they have any skin/hair issues? Great video man, sorry about your digit.
