Sawstop Video - FAO Joiners... Amazing

I worked with a joiner a few years ago and he told me some scary stories involving table saws!

This would have prevented a lot of them. Pinched from passionford

A cracking bit of technology, I wonder how it would work in different ambient conditions when the electrical conductivity changes?

The guy obviously stands by his invention (or is clinically insane)

That is an impressive video. Would be nice to see how it stands up under real conditions as you say. However, it has to be better than nothing

yep, forgot to say in my post that I am hugley impressed with it.

Still, I wouldn't trust it on the video of him sneaking his finger up to it in order to trigger the reaction alone.
