Smart table saw
« on: March 31, 2007, 11:43:27 AM »
A couple months back someone posted a link to some smart table saws that would shut off if someone's finger caught in the saw. Was searching the boards but couldn't find it!

Any help is appreciated!

i'd point to where, but i didn't have one of those saws, either.

I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.

That was me that posted about the SawStop (http://www.sawstop.com).  Amazing engineering, and on my wish list.

Yes, you've decoded his joke.  Bravo!

This thing is awesome, it's funny that so many of the tool companies aren't interested because of legal liability.  One of the many pieces of evidence of how screwed up our legal system is.
