I was at the yard where I get most of my pine yesterday and I
overheard a conversation about Saw Stop. One of the guys was saying
that the Saw Stop safety mechanism will sometimes engage when no
hand/finger/whatever touched the blade.
Any of you guys have experience with Saw Stop?

Thanks,

Google this group and you will see tons of discussion on this topic.




Hello Stout - I did and my Reply is below.

But, this does bring me to add my two cents on the subject of
*redundancy of topic* as this seems to come up from time-to-time.
I woulld suggest to you guys that there is nothing wrong with such
under certain (probably many) circumstances. At times I get the
feeling that once a Thread -with a particular Subject- has been posted
and run its course, that is supposed to close the door on the subject.
For example; because we had a post on Saw Stop I am supposed to search
and read. If I don't find an adequate answer to my currrent question
- too bad. This attitude assumes that everything anyone ever wanted to
know about the subject was contained within that original Thread and
there can be no further input, no new information, no additional
opinions, etc.
From my perspective this group has a significant number of members who
float in and out. It is possible that not everyone with something to
say added to that original message.
Further, in this case the subject deals with a rather new technology.
There might be new information.
In fact, I was here on the group when the thread passed through
earlier this year. Before I posted today I looked at the SS website
(again) and then googled and yahoo'ed the subject. I was still not
satisfied that I had an answer so I posted the specific question.
At the very least I can hope that the thread helps Mort make his
decision.

Cheers,
J
