Default SawStop files with GPO/CPSC for mandatory use in US

Yes, Jack, I think that's EXACTLY what comes next, after SawStop
becomes mandatory. EverythingStop is on the Long Term To Do list, no
doubt.

Wow. Can't sell his product so he wants to legislate it in?
What is next? Routerstop? Joinerstop? Drillstop? Axe stop? And even
doorstop.
The 8% royalty makes me think this is motivated by greed rather than safety.
It also makes me think it will not make it into saws. Very sad as it is a
promising idea.

Well, they said they were going to force it down the consumer's throats.
Here's
the filing with the Federal Register, as of today, Jul 9:

The CPSC filing is "CP03-2", and here are their filings:

http://www.cpsc.gov/LIBRARY/FOIA/FOI...ladesawpt1.pdf
http://www.cpsc.gov/LIBRARY/FOIA/FOI...ladesawpt2.pdf

As far as I can interpret the Federal Register filing, there is a 60-day
window of opportunity
for commenting on the proposed mandatory inclusion of SawStops

proprietary
technology in all US-sold tablesaws.
