Safety Reminder. The picture below is a reminder of what can happen when improperly using a forstner bit on the drill press. Forstner bits are often used to drill holes for mini clock and frame inserts. The bits are large and cause a lot of torque on the wood. The reader that sent this picture wanted me to remind everyone that it is important to use the bit before cutting the pattern. This gives you enough wood to clamp the piece to the drill press table. If possible you should use forstner bits at slower speeds. Thanks Jutta for the reminder.
Ouch!

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
