I am Woodcraft yesterday and I am looking at the Saw Stop saws. *No money to

Some other customer stands next to me and says: "What they don't tell you is
that after the saw does its thing in an emergency you need to buy new parts
from them to make the saw work again."

I say: "But you still have your fingers"

He then says: "But your saw won't work again until you buy the parts - from
them!"

I almost replied again with "You still have your fingers" but I figured it
was pointless. *Apparently this guy has figured out that the corporate plan
is to save your fingers but stick it to you in the wallet afterwards.

He was probably trying to offset the cost of a wiener vs the cost of
the replacement part.
