Message: [QUOTE="wpfay, post: 823415, member: 3309"] I watched a video where the inventor did just that. But it was very controlled, nothing like real life situations. If he had lost his grip on a piece of wood, or tried to force something that was binding, a bandaid would not have been enough. As it was, he allowed the blade to just nick the side of his finger. I real life the finger would have been moving into the blade at a much higher rate of speed. Maybe they should test it with a chicken leg and a fast crosscut action...bet they still sever the leg. I agree wholeheartedly about the possible disadvantage of sawstop. It is no replacement for correct operation and the use of power feeds, featherboards, push sticks, and other devices that take the place of hands. The machine is almost never at fault when an accident occurs. Sawstop might just give operators a sense of false security, though I'm certain they don't use that as a selling tool. [/QUOTE]
