Power tools are dangerous. Saws are the worst and can remove digits in less than a second.
Chain saws are unquestionably top of the league as they are free to move in three dimensions. Easily attack feet and legs as well as hands!!
Always make sure that if working with them - no trip hazards, fingers well away from where you plan cutting, basic safety gear (goggle and mask), plenty of space in which to work, wait until saw has stopped before moving workpiece.
I do a bit of woodwork as a hobby - whilst if I go out for a meal I may have a pint or a glass of wine, in the workshop no alcohol is my order of the day!
