    Thanks for the warning- it really is horrible how quickly the human body can be mangled by metal.

    I hope your friend heals as quickly, completely, and painlessly as possible.

    After over 50 years of running saws, 2 years ago I got the end of my thumb .
    It can happen to any of us.

    The old saying. "There are those that have and those that haven't yet".

    Everyone be careful.

    Ouch - but not in the first few seconds. Been there. In 1970 I removed the middle joint from my left little finger with my (classic now) Monkey Ward Radial Arm Saw plus various other smaller calamities. When you do this stuff long enough the odds are just a Leo said. PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU ARE DOING, a momentary laps is all it takes.

    Another old saying - Machines do not come with brains, you have to use your own.

    that saying never met a sawstop

    All politics aside on whether it should be mandatory or not (I really don't want to start that debate here) the technology itself is AMAZING

    I have a friend that has a sawstop in his shop and one of his firends
    came in contact with the blade and it stopped the blade in a milly sec. and did not cut his finger.
    All he had was a slight redness on the finger.
    But all sawstops should come with a couple rolls of tolit paper too.

    I have often wondered why it is that
    Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left".
    "The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of
    the fool to the left."
