Now that's a guy who truly believes in his product!!! Every woodshop class in America will have one of these installed on their tablesaws.

Re: Finger Vs. Table Saw Video (SawStop In Action)
We do an occassional project using green rough cut lumber. I would be the biggest culprit when it came to remembering not to use that saw. But man I like the idea. I'm lucky that I only slightly disfigured my fingers in the router.
Is that an add-on or a complete saw to purchase? Good Luck Dave

Re: Finger Vs. Table Saw Video (SawStop In Action)
Is the blade still usable? It looks like the teeth are embedded in the aluminum.

Re: Finger Vs. Table Saw Video (SawStop In Action)
i wonder if it was water in your body/green wood that stops the blade or dose it have something to do with the electrolytes in us that causes the electrical current to stop the blade
if we could look at the video and think that green wood will kill the blade i would only assume that after spending so much time and money in r&d someone would have considered this fact. so one would assume that there is some kind of protection against the blade stopping from only cutting a piece of green wood just imho Last edited by scwalsh; 12-08-2008 at 09:34 PM. |

Re: Finger Vs. Table Saw Video (SawStop In Action)
its not the water in your body completely, its that your
body is conductive and therefore the low voltage current they run through the blade experiences a voltage drop triggering the blade brake. $100 for a new blade and brake I think is still better losing a finger. |

Re: Finger Vs. Table Saw Video (SawStop In Action)
Can you use any blade with that saw or is it a specially designed blade? I second the use of them in HS shop classes. When I was in high school I can't even count how many people would be cutting and then wink! blood. Good use of technology tho

As far as I know, you can use any blade.
