If so, it's a peculiar business model, in that amputees are rather less
likely than the general woodworking population to become repeat customers.


So do the math--calculat the number of amputations resulting in inability to
run saw (amputation of tip of pinky-finger for exampled does not count),
calculate the percentage of those who were likely to ever buy your saw,
figure the cost of lost sales, figure the cost of preventing the
amputations, and see which makes you more money.
