(1) it requires you have a computer model of your project (good luck
getting it to trim a cabinet to fit against your old plastered wall)
(2) it measures against tapes that you have to buy as supplies, presumably from
the manufacturer (recall cheap printers with pricy ink cartridges?)
(3) it registers on tapes that you apply, presumably they have to be
straight and on a perfectly flat surface? Won't happen outdoors in wind, or
on a jobsite with sawhorses under a sheet of plywood.
(4) not sure how a vision system will work with the sawdust flying everywhere, but
good lighting will have to be part of the solution
Best use of this will take up a big shopspace, and I don't have one. Space, that is (nor tool).
