Commit these 10 rules to habit and your woodworking experiences will be safer and much more enjoyable. The first and most important rule of woodworking is to wear appropriate safety equipment.
What should you not wear to a woodworking job?
Do not wear loose clothing, work gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets or other jewellery that can become entangled with moving parts. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the cutting tool or blade.
