That would work on "Strike Force" or "Accumulated Strike".

I was still thinking office Leo.

I'm intrigued about the pole thing.

There is a shop near ours that had a pole dancing school move in next door.
For fun and fitness they say

I have you slotted for a lesson

Re: Post A Picture Of Your Shop

The sail switch makes a set of contacts when air is flowing. When air is not flowing, the contacts open. You could use it to set off an alarm or something, via a relay. You can "calibrate" the amount of airflow needed to activate it by snipping off some of the sail.

Or you could just kick the barrel once in a while

You could put that sail on the exhaust, it might work

Re: Post A Picture Of Your Shop

The airflow in the system is constant until the filter is clogged, by that time it is way to late, plus the airflow is about 4000 FPM. I was thinking I could put it in the barrel and when the chips started to build they would push the sail up and close the contacts. The only problem with this is the chips are swirling in a vortex fashion and would likely bury the sail instead of the chips building up beneath it.

It is fun to use a slider.
You have to be comfortable reaching over the blade all day. The scoring blade can getcha too.
Helps to be on first name basis with your chiropractor too.
But it's a great saw

Exactly! Couldn't have said any better myself.

Still fun though. Danger brings an element of focus that is fun.

Ah c'mon, what's wrong with a good stationary power tool that might kill you. It keeps things interesting.
Like my Dad used to say:

"Firearms, aircraft, power tools, and women will always bite a fool."
