You can, but it is less likely. Most likely you draw blood but the would heals normally in a week without needing a doctor
chisles are more dangerious but you normally work away from your body.
You're missing my point: A thousand dollar table saw is not a basic saw. It's not something anyone but a serious wood worker is going to buy unless they're rich. This person is going to buy a used Ryobi because the suggestions in this thread are so dumb. "Go buy a $650 saw! Go buy a $1000 saw!" How is that helpful at all? Do you recommend buying Snap On to your friends who want to turn a few bolts? This thread is a pile of gate keeping by people who either have way too much money or are serious woodworkers. And I'm getting downvoted for calling out this stupidity.
You are missing the point. table saws are too dangerious to risk the cheap saw. Better to do without. Ther are alternatives that while slower are also cheaper.
i understand this is a lot of money. your fingers are worth it.
This guy works for Delta or something. Or just hates people having fingers.
