April 3, 20242 yr comment_333113 Government regulation will change woodworking forever from your garage to the largest users of table saws. I am not taking any shots at SAWSTOP if you like one buy one but soon big brother will make you buy a SawStop or something just like it . This video hit YouTube less than one hour ago. calabrese55 Edited April 3, 20242 yr by calabrese55 spelling Report

Must have been delayed as my tablet was going through some updates. I had to restart several times to get everything working again. Report

Hi Dave Literally the video was tagged at 20 minutes ago when I stumbled on to it late yesterday afternoon. As far as Stumpy Nubs Videos ( James Hamilton)I think they are some of the most sincere and fact based vids I have ever seen. I am not into hero worship by any measure but I appreciate any information that I feel is not salted with some sort of polarization , Stumpy Nubs INHO manages this balance very well ! calabrese55 Report

April 6, 20242 yr Popular Post comment_333319 Y'all just gonna have to go to "hand tools". On a more serious note, Stumpy closed out with, "USE YOUR TABLE SAW GUARDS!". I couldn't agree more. If we all used them religiously, we wouldn't be where we are at with all of this government over reach, because statistically that 40 thousand injury per year statistic wouldn't exist, if we all just use our guards, and there would be no market for a flesh sensing technology. So in a roundabout way, we are responsible for what is happening now. Report
April 6, 20242 yr comment_333347 I'd be curious to see the actual statistics regarding the 40k/year injuries. Just wondering if "table saw" is mingled in with circular saw, band saw or??? injuries. Assuming most ER clerks don't know the difference. Just my opinion. Report
