Safety Week in Review
As the second annual Woodworker’s Safety Week comes to a close, I am once again amazed at the strength of this community. There were so many blog posts and videos that I just couldn’t keep up. I know I’ll be spending this weekend going back through all the content so I don’t miss anything. I would like to thank all the bloggers who participated as well as our friends Popular Woodworking and Fine Woodworking who made an effort to promote shop safety this week.
As you know, we had some crazy stories this year of injuries and disasters that are truly a woodworker’s worst nightmare. Now I certainly didn’t want to scare anyone with these graphic depictions because fear is a bad thing in the workshop. But awareness and respect are things we can never have enough of. So by seeing the reality of these disastrous situations, my hope is that it will raise your awareness and make you realize that these things can happen to anyone at any time. The other half of the lesson is that these things are completely preventable. And this is really the heart and soul of Woodworker’s Safety Week: the community sharing advice and experiences in an effort to promote shop safety.
So again, thanks to all who participated and took the time to read the posts, watch the videos, and comment on the blogs. Stay safe in the workshop my friends and have a great weekend!
