Ya' know...they didn't mention that when the safety feature is actually =
fired, you must replace it and the blade.  The heat generated by the =
friction literally welds the blade to the stopper.  I don't know about =
you, but if this thing mis-fired, that could be rather pricey.  My =
blades usually run about $75 bucks each, and dado blades are about $300 =
each set.

I'm not complaining, I'm just making a minor point.  I would have no =
problem paying $300 to keep my fingers.

  Speaking of table saws, have any of you heard of this product?  I =
heard about it on NPR radio.  Using electric current, it can detect in =
thousandths of a second when a finger touches a blade -- and stops the =
saw before there's barely a nick!
