So long as you finish with all your thumbs...

On that theme you want to build a panel cutting jig as well, much safer. There is some stuff to know about how to not get in the firing line of a kickback and keeping thumbs intact.

It would be a good job for Harley to write up a guide, he had a close call last year, impaled the back wall. Too scary for me, I don't own one.

:-). I've often pondered what I'd do if I ever lost the thumb . I reckon whatever stump remained could still be utilised to funky effect lol.
