According to WW Journal, the presidential overturn time for the FTC ruling. has expired and Bosch can no longer sell the their table saws in the USA. We can thank Mr. Greed (Gass) for this.The American woodworker is being deprived of the Bosch technology that would provide a safe table saw in their shop that, unlike the Saw Stop, would prevent injury without expensively damaging to their table saws and blades Bosch does plan to appeal the FTC ruling. I'm sure Mr. Gass's greed will ultimately result in more shop injuries than his Saw Stop technology will prevent.

I have seen the SawStop demonstration with the hotdog a dozen times. But I always felt that it was done under premium conditions to ensure that it worked properly with optimal results. At several of the demonstrations I had questioned the demonstrators and requested that they place the hotdog in a glove so we could see the results. My request was always denied and I was always told, “You shouldn’t wear gloves at the table saw.” Well, I live in the real world where other contractors are on my equipment, we work in extremely harsh conditions, and I can’t keep control of everyone every time they use the table saw. So, even though it is unsafe, contractors wear their gloves at the table saw all the time. That is just reality. My local cabinet hardware supplier, A&H Turf, recently became an authorized SawStop dealer and so I made the request to them and they took me up on it. This video shows how far a SawStop will drag the glove into the machine before it kicks off. I hope you enjoy my version of the SawStop test and stay safe out there;) Your friend in the shop, Todd A.
