Re: Article on Skin sensing table saw

Wow, if that isn't one of the most interesting and practical inventions of our time! As a young kid I can remember meeting the man who helped build my parent's house, who only had 7 fingers! This could, and should, revolutionize the business.

However, upon reading that article, I find it fascinating how the real-world market actually works. Clearly, this device has the potential to save not just fingers, but lives in the right applications; Chainsaws, hedge trimmers, lawn movers, you name it... But the manufacturers are reluctant to include it because of liability, or more importantly, their present lack of liability. Hopefully, the one law change will force manufacturers to include this technology (or similar ones) into their products.

Sawstop LLC doesn't seem to be a publicly traded company. But, if they were, I'd make sure I had some money to invest in them. It looks to be a great company, who's trying to do the right thing. Compare that to the pipeline debacle that BP is in right now... (sorry, let's please keep this thread to a discussion on Sawstop, thank!)
