They have a blade with the stop jambed in it at the local Woodcraft store
signed by an ukulele maker who got to keep all his fingers, so I'd say it
works. I'd still be just as carefull as I would with any other table saw.

According to "Ask This Old House", you also have to push your work with
a weiner. ;-)

What have been the worst (serious or humorous) handyman or

you know, or saw it happen to, got to experience) and please
elaborate on what unfortunately went wrong.

I'm not going to read anymore of this thread. I'm afraid to go into
my work shed or pick up a tool!

I'm with you. It's scaring the pants off of me.

I'll tell you one thing: I'm going to make darned sure I keep my hair
cut short...

My hair has been cut so that it is no more than 1/2" long. The one
tool that I use that I have the most respect for (read scared of) is
the radial arm saw, especially when ripping. Somehow, the blade over
the table is more respected (read scared of) than one under the table.
The others, I'm just merely careful.

Would you trust one of these?http://www.sawstop.com/

Cheers!
