Woodworking safety involves understanding and respecting tools and materials to prevent injuries. Always wear protective gear like safety glasses and hearing protection. Keep your workspace clean and free of clutter to avoid accidents. Use tools as intended, ensure they are well-maintained, and follow manufacturer instructions. Keep hands away from blades and moving parts, and turn off equipment when adjusting or cleaning. Never rush or force tools; patience reduces mistakes. Be aware of your surroundings and assist others when needed. Proper safety practices protect you from cuts, splinters, noise, and other hazards, ensuring a safe and enjoyable woodworking experience.
