I'm working on a mod to my saw right now to add resistive braking. I
figure I need about 10 ohms, but I'm not sure how much power rating it
will need. Perhaps a heater coil would be best.

Are you going to use hot dogs to test it? If it works you can market it
with a catchy name. One comes to mind, how about "Stop Saw"?
