Anecdotally speaking, Frank Fusco of FamilyWoodworking, whose son is a Board Certified emergency room physician in a Level 1 trauma unit, noted:

Belt Sander

A table saw is not a tool for a beginner, but in the hands of an experienced woodworker it can save a great deal of time when many pieces of wood require cutting. No professional workshop is complete without one.

The Ryobi band saw is a truly versatile and innovative product that offers a lot of useful features. Get one today and make your time in your workshop more convenient and worthwhile.

First of all, always keep a clean work area. Debris can cause a lot of problems in the functioning of the power tools. It can also hinder your ability to properly operate the equipment. After you are finished for the day, vacuum off any dust and debris from the equipment and store them in their proper cases. This helps keep the blades and bits sharp and in good working order.

It is. Let us say that you have a beach house. There comes a time that you need to renovate or improve your beach house. You can just hire a pro to do the job, but would it not be more pragmatic if you do the work yourself in your spare time? That is a good move, and especially if you have at least some DIY skills.

This is another hand-held power tool. You can use the circular saw to rip and crosscut hardwoods, softwoods and other types of materials that are not made of wood.

And the DIY network offers a rundown on all of the woodworking safety accessories I mentioned above.

Tod, of FamilyWoodworking, says it well. Take care of each power tool you own as advised in the manual. Sharper is safer.

Even if you are an advanced woodworker and you know the equipment like the back of your hand, complacency can cause you to forget about the most basic safety measures. Saw, drills and sanders are powerful pieces of equipment and can cause injury without discrimination.
