A guild member got a bad cut at her house from a rotary cutter and she said her medical insurance asked if she was wearing safety gear or using a safety guard. Same to them as using sharp or dangerous shop tools. Said it was negligence on her part. I use a Slidelock and if the cut is small I use the glove. Every cut, every time. To me it is the same precaution as wearing a seatbelt in a vehicle. It's a have to thing.
