While cutting some 45˚ angles for doorway trim with my Miter Saw, I use my left hand to push the blade down to the wood, holding the most wood in my right and vice versa when cutting a miter on the right. It creeps me out to have my fingers even 4 inches away from a spinning blade. I'm fully engaged at all times, not speaking to someone or drinking. That begins after cutting the wood. I also pre-cut my wood then paint, some folks think it's dumb but at the end of the day I don't have to waste painters tape. Nail holes are east to cover, the 45˚ joints are easy to calk and paint as well, it just seems logical to me.
Push sticks for table saws and clamps for your wood using circular saws, keeping both hands above the blade to control the saw just seems again, logical.
