That incident was a result of my own lack of experience, since then I use feather boards and other tools that let me feed small pieces through the blade safely without kick back. Even with all the safety features put on these machines today, one can never be too careful if he wants to take all ten fingers and both eyes with him to the grave. I still have all of mine, and intend to keep it that way.
