Always seek professional advice and training before using any power tools/machinery/equipment. If you have any uncertainty before performing any shop procedure, stop and get certified training so you can learn the safe method/technique. Do not attempt anything simply because you saw it in one of my videos. Be smart, use common sense, respect your power tools/machines, and be safe.
