Yeah, just watched their video.  Impressive!  I could not find any pricing info on that sight though.  Makes me wonder how much they are.

Have you heard anything about their pricing?

Wow I really think that is great. The only thing I don't like is having to replace the blade and the brake after the brake is tripped. Some of the blades I use cost $100.00 and there is no telling what they charge to replace the cartridge. Don't get me wrong you can't put a price on your fingers.

  That saw has been around for a while, i've seen it demoed a couple times on TV...

  I think i'd rather "nick" my finger than pay the $100.00 for a new cartridge + the cost of a new blade!!!  I said NICK not "loose!"  But of course after more than 30 years of tablesaw ownership, i still have all of my fingers, so i must be doing something right!!

  If i remember right, the saw is in the $1,800.00 bracket, stripped...

That is pretty high in price. It might be worth it if you had a big shop just to keep down insurance costs. After 23 years I still have all mine also. Knock on wood. LOL  ;D

Was just looking at the 3 Hp. Sawstop at Woodcraft and it was $3700.00. You can save a little $$ by shopping around.
