Table Saw Stupid!

[scmhogg]

Did anybody see the "Bowl on a table saw article in the recent American Woodworker Magazine? Even that seems a little scary to me.

Here's a video from their website.

I saw that bowl article. I won't be trying it. I surely wouldn't try circles on a TS, especially with a flimsy, rotten, plywood jig.

I've done a couple coves. It wasn't that hard, but I did not feel good pushing wood at an angle to the blade. Sure wish I had a curved scraper and knew how to sharpen it then. Cleaning up all the ridges would have been easier.

Other than his jig being sticky and him getting his fingers close to the blade I didn't see anything wrong with the process. You guys are a bunch of chickens!
