If I had one I’d probably just chop something off with my band saw, miter saw, scroll saw, skill saw, sawzall or jig saw…
it has a key lock where you can bypass the "safety technology" for cutting conductive materials.

you know of all the wood tools out there (and I have used almost all of them both in 3 years of woodshop in HS and as a cabinetmaker for a few years) the chainsaw spooks me the most.

I'm not "scared" of a tool, but I do realize the dangers inherent in some of them.

I'll tell you what, a door panel shaper is a heck of a lot more dangerous than a table saw. I've had close calls with a table saw being a dumb-ass but I have also ripped 2 full 4 foot tall by 4 foot wide cord of 16 foot boards down to 2" slats in a day. that's a LOT of cutting, and I have done that multiple times.

the shaper though with that huge bit, totally exposed making a 3" deep cut shape on knotty pine, well you get some serious kick backs sometimes. you get your hand caught in that bit, and kiss you arm up to your elbow goodbye.

Sewing machine.  I kid you not.  

My wife was shopping for a new sewing machine a few years ago and asked my opinion.  When I saw the brochures and saw Husqvarna I said, “They make sewing machines too?  I thought they just made Chainsaws.” She said, “They make Chainsaws?  I thought they just made sewing machines.”  Anyway, I insisted we get the Husqvarna.

I used to ride Husqvarna Motorcycles a lot. Owned two of them. They were great dirt bikes.

Saw this on a tech show about a year ago, was kinda wondering how long it would take to get into production.
