A piece of mesquite got me yesterday off the band saw

I was relying on push sticks and that was not enough. I have a device I can tie the wood on and I will use that in the future and wear gloves. It was an end cut. This mesquite wood is so hard, the end cut is not possible unless securely tied to a device. Side cuts, I always use the device to secure the piece I am cutting on the bandsaw.
