shop someone trips and falls on the machine. I will then post this
thread so you can remember that you don't need additional protection,
and if you or yours did something to yourself by accident, you may have
deserved it.

I was thinking of an accident happening through no fault of your own. The
dog comes in and brushes against your leg distracting you. Something falls
off a shelf startling you. A power failure plunges you into darkness and you
slip against the still spinning blade in the dark.

The more I read about this, the more I'm thinking a Sawstop is a pretty good
idea, especially considering that I work from an awkward height ~ sitting in
a wheelchair. But, for me anyway, it's way out of my financial reach.
Besides, if I cut off a finger, it won't cost me anything up front, except a
lot of pain and cursing. One advantage anyway, of our Canadian medical
system.
