I have got to the point where I don't feel right doing certain tasks if I don't have safety glasses on. They are generally required (unless I can't find them) for grinding, drilling brick, and sawzall work.
On the flip side, my table saw was 'deeply discounted' as the previous owner lost the tip of his finger on it...
The best way to be safe is to use your brain. Think before you do and you won't ever use the first aid kit Especially on the compound saw and and the table saw.
I also separate welding/grinding from woodwork. The sparky metal stuff gets done where I work. Sawdust gets made at home.
Fire extinguisher, smoke alarm, iodine, band-aids, and tampons (for the gruesome lost digit scenario). And a cell phone.
