Saw Stop
Just thought about this as I'm getting ready to do a stir fry. I have
some good cooking knives I really love to use as well as a mandolin. Is this going to effect how I go about preparing my meals. I can see where more people might starve it they couldn't afford saw stop technology. Mike M |

No I've got a perfectly good unisaw, but if I was shopping for a new saw I would definitely look at a Saw Stop. Seems like a good saw, I just don't care for the way they have pursued some issues. If I had a business with employees I would want one. None the less sometimes the government get a little carried away with regulating to the lowest common denominator. |

I always use the conveient and safe vegtable holder with my mandolin and I always use all the safety equipment with my saw stop. Just a little background for any newcomers from the Winter 2004/2005 Fine Woodworking Tools and Shops Annual Issue page 66: " When Stephen Gass first invented a device to detect contact between an operator and a moving saw blade and then stop the blade instantly (meaning within five-thousandths of a second), he figured all he had to do was offer it to saw manufacturers, and they'd be tripping over each other to buy it. It didn't work out that way. After the SawStop technology won the prestigious Challenger's Award at the IWF show in Atlanta in 2000, progress seemed to grind to a halt. Why? The answer to that question, like most stories, depends on whom you ask. I spent more then an hour on the phone with Gass and he gave me a truncated version of events from his perspective. Gass and hos partners showed prototypes of the device to more than a dozen table saw manufacturers and got as far as a signed license agreement with one of them before the deal fell apart. In April 2003 they (along with several hundred signatures in agreement) petitioned the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to initiate a ruling that would declare the technology a performance standard, the net effect of which would require manufacturers to put it on their saws. The CPSC has yet to make a formal ruling on that petition. None of the manufacturer representatives that I contacted would agree to let me use their names or go on the record with a response. But one of them told me the reluctance to adopt the technology is twofold: They believe the mechanism has been tested thoroughly enough, and the retooling costs would be enormous because they can't retrofit it to existing saws. He added that they also don't believe table saws are inherently unsafe, as long as consumers utilize the guards and splitters that come with the machine." So this isn't a new issue by any means |

Sorry but your phrasing above does not make sense. If their reluctance is based on their belief that the mechanism has been tested thoroughly enough - how does that make any sense at all? Retooling costs makes sence but only in the context of existing models. It makes no sense with respect to new products/designs. Maybe make another run at what you're trying to say? -- -Mike- |

What he's saying is companies have been making the same saws, or different saws using the sampe parts, for decades - and they work and sell - so to make a saw-stop enabled saw would require a total re-engineering - a TOTALLY new saw - at quite a great expense - to fix a problem they do not believe is a serious problem. |

Saw Stop
"JayPique" wrote in message ... When does the patent expire? Stephen Gass holds 89 patents, most of which have something to do with saw safety. The latest patent was issued April 19, 2010 and is for a miter saw with safety system. The last Saw Stop type patent that I see was issued April 30 2007. Patents last 20 years if maintenance payments are made. |

I think that because you don't do through cuts with a dado I think I would not worry too much about tripping that one. But still if you do trip it it is a pretty good chance it actually saved you a log of money and pain. |

Saw Stop
LOL Please substitute" What" for "I hat" in the above post. Geez. No operation issues that I know of, just the extra expense and extra time to swap. *Of course if money were no issue, I'd have a much bigger shop with two saw stops - one for dado and one regular. Swapping the cartridge takes less time than swapping a blade. |

Saw Stop
...and a storage area for the extra cartriges, blades and dado sets ;-)
- Show quoted text - Cartridge is the size of a sandwich so no problem to store. Not sure what you mean by extra space for blades and dada sets. You need to store those for a saw stop or for a lesser saw too. |

I think Doug figures he will be the exception and have lots of false trips and will need dozens of extra cartridges and blades on hand. |

Not sure what you mean by extra space for blades and dada sets. You need to store those for a saw stop or for a lesser saw too. I'm referring to the extra dado sets/blades to replace the ones destroyed by trips. Don't really need those for my current saw. My shop is 240 sq ft with: tablesaw with router table jointer planer bandsaw drill press lathe radial arm saw mounted in 16' work table sharpening center dust collector mortising machine disc/belt sander 1' belt sander wall storage cabinets full to the brim All tools except the RAS are on mobile bases so as to expand into the rest of the gar^H^H^Hshop when the truck and van are moved out (HOA won't allow them to live outside permanently). Not sure there is room for a ham and cheese sandwich. -- "Socialism is a philosophy of failure,the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery" -Winston Churchill |

Can you leave the blade in the cartridge? *That would be nice for changing between regular and dado modes. Puckdropper -- Make it to fit, don't make it fit. To swap from ripping blade to dado. 1. Remove blade 2. Reach below blade to twist and remove locking pin 3. Slide cartridge off 4. Slide other cartridge on 5. reinster and twist locking pin 6. Install dado blade(s) |
