Am I the only one in the world who has given up trying to adjust the splitter/ blade guard on my Delta Hybrid table saw? I finally removed it today. It's not my fault. The guys on the "Woodsmith Shop" on TV don't have theirs on.

Here's one of my favorites:
I didn't watch 'em all, just the first link in the post. My opinion is that it was staged. As you indicated, there wasn't nearly enough blood for it to be a actual traumatic amputation.

I just put my guard back on after 20 years. I have a ten inch bench saw thet fell off the bench when I was ripping a one foot peice of 1x4. Damn thing got the tip of my thumb. From now on it's gunna get bolted down even if it's for one cut. Jerry

Perhaps the "Woodsmith Shop" guys, and quite a few printed magazine editors, who ought to know better, might think it worth spending a bit of time at:

wow, that is one sick video. That guy should never have never, ever, attempted to use any kind of tool. Granted, a guard would have stopped the accident, but he would have found another way to mangle himself. Bad as the video is, it doesn't seem logical to use it as an argument for safety features. It COULD be used as an argument for learning what you are doing.
This guy could have done the same thing on a compound miter saw

not to be argumentative, but I'm not so sure. I had a bad accident with a router 2 years ago. No blood anywhere on the router, table, or blade.
I was using a router table, and the fence slipped, causing a climb cut, and away we went/ 1/4 wide, 1/4 inch deep, across the nail bed of the thumb. The nail is pretty much fine now. A guard may have helped, but then again, it probably would have slid out of the way.
Now I check to make sure everything is tightened down real good
