    Clamp things every time. EVERY!! Being clever, I was trying to run a wedge across the cutters with left hand, and holding the plane right hand. Piece shot away and my finger ends went into the cutter. Could see the boney ends etc.
    Sounds obvious, but working with it every day hanging doors, familiarity breeds contempt.
    It took nearly 2 years to grow sufficient skin etc to 'look normal' and about another 6 years for feeling to return. I did know better. :0/

    I've got into some small wood working tasks during 'lock down' and watched so many youtube videos where they have these amazing workshops, your videos are great in that your setup is not dissimilar to my own - a work bench and some basic power tools - and I feel like I can do what you're showing.
