I've heard of the Sawstop technology before and what I heard was very depressing if true. Basically none of the table saw manufacturers want to deal with this guy because they are afraid or lawsuits. The logic goes like this, right now everybody knows a table saw will maim you, there's no expectation that it won't. But if they implement that technology, and it then fails, then there will be a BIG lawsuit. Meanwhile everybody who uses a table saw and sees Sawstop, wants it. But the guy is having a very difficult time setting a major manufacturing operation to ship Sawstop table saws himself. Again, I don't know if this is true, but it's very sad if it is. -- EDIT: I missed this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=453822 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=453822
