A good idea on paper, marred by reality First, this would basically grant Sawstop a monopoly. They say they'll release the patent, but I'd like to see that requirement built into the bill Second, it doesn't seem to allow for alternative safety systems. Bosch has a system that competes with Sawstop, and is arguably better, as it doesn't destroy the saw, blade, or carriage, but is currently unavailable in the US due to Sawstop parents If the bill were to allow for the Bosch or other systems on us soil then I'd have far fewer qualms over it
