I want to see the greedy mo fo jam his hand into the blade as proof of
safety. If you slipped on sawdust and your hand hit the table to stop
your face from going into the blade, it would be moving a wee bit
faster than he micrometered his pinky into that blade. Feh!


Kind of a sadistic ******* are you.

What's sadistic about a plain old real-world test, Leon?

You play stupid splendidly.


Au contraire, mon ami. If it's so safe, as he repeatedly says it is,
it won't harm him in the slightest. Would YOU jam your hand into the
spinning blade of a SawStop? I'm requesting real-world testing, not
this inch-a-pinky crap. NOBODY working on a saw moves that slowly.


I think only you would expect the SawStop to protect youself from
yourself. It FYI the SawStop would also not protect you from slamming
your head against the table top to see if it would raise a knot.
