If it was a 20 by 24 foot garage like I have now, it may be plausable. If
fact, entering from the kitchen, where there are currently two steps, and
you would already be 12 inches above the ground (concrete).

It all boils down to feeling comfortable and safe when using your
equipment. *Anything* is doable if one is willing to put up with some
aggravations. For me, a raised floor is not one of those things. It's been
considered and discarded as being too problematic, especially when there
is an excellent quality lowered saw already available on the market.
Unfortunately, that's not a Sawstop. Maybe some time in the future with
additional technology, patents expiring, etcetera, a Sawstop add-on might
become available. Until then, I'll be careful with the tools that don't
make me feel excessively nervous to use.




Good attitude. If it doesn't feel safe, don't do it. You retain many more
body parts that way.
