Default O/T: SawStop

I would think unlikely that a discount for liability would be offered.
The TS is only one of the machines in a typical shop that can cause
serious injury. A jointer, lathe, and or a shaper are a few that can do
as much harm as a TS.


Insurance companies are pushing the use of Saw Stop technology though. I
know our Workman's Comp carrier is strongly recommending their customers
change over to them. It is just one of many factors in evaluating a company
for rates/coverage.
