Default This is so cool! A 'safety' table saw that detects your finger.

Ahh, but that could never happen. If your saw tripped falsely 30 times,
you'd have hung yourself long before then.


You'd probably have sold the saw by then since you couldn't afford to
keep replacing the blade and stop. You know that, even assuming the
blade and stop only cost $250 total to replace, you could buy almost
*4* whole new tablesaws?

You could make your shop look like Norm's for that!
