To be fair, other companies haven't been trying very hard. I hate Felder for this. They have their own tech to drop the sawblade when they sense fingers. And they use it as a form of market segmentation, only offering it on their $30k+ tablesaws and not on their less expensive ones. > The best advice I got in shop class was to slowly and quietly count to 10 on my fingers before throwing a power switch and in doing so to envision the operation from beginning to end and all the forces which would be involved, and to remind myself, that I wanted to be able to repeat that cut when the power was turned off. It's great advice, but injuries tend to happen when people become complacent with the operations.
