    P.S. it's okay to point out safety infarctions.

    I think this video just proves some people can do dumb things for no good reason. The whole thing is just one big safety "infarction".

    The problems are obvious. First there is not set to the blades and second there is no fleam if he wants to cross cut.

    I hereby nominate Danger Dodo to be the guest host for the 2018 Darwin Awards. Can I get a "second"?

    His improvised saw blade doesn't make very clean cuts. I wonder what he will invent to clean up that ragged edge.

    I was waiting for his blade to grab the piece and rip it out of his hand while shards of knife blades went every where.

    At least he's telling people not to do it and is very up front about the dangers, unlike a lot of YouTube woodworkers who not only don't care about the danger, when you point it out to them, they defend their idiotic actions.
