Think about it.

You'd need to move a cast iron table top four inches in maybe ONE
millisecond?

That's a foot every three milliseconds, or 333 and a third feet per
second! That works out to a little more than 227 miles per hour!

The table would disintegrate under the stresses and you'd need
a few hundred horsepower to drive the table that hard anyway!

If the table jumped that high, fast enough to make a difference, you'd
have two to five hundred pounds of cast iron flying up and hitting you
in the face, which would be just about as bad as shaking hands with
the blade.

Not a great idea.




No no no... Only the table top... 30 or 40 pounds... just high enough to
make the blade dissapear. But then again better the flat table hitting you
in the face than the blade.....
