If workpiece center of gravity (see Figure
9) extends too far right, table can easily
tip off of bandsaw sled. Body parts could
be pulled into moving blade or pinched/
crushed if caught under falling workpiece.
If table is not firmly seated on bandsaw
sled, use roller table (or other method of
workpiece support) or cut down workpiece
to more manageable length.
