Ok i may be way behind the curve on this, but I was altogether unaware of Sawstop as a brand and as a safety design. Now that they have come to Australia via Carbatec I'm sold and will be buying one tomorrow. I live in fear of my tablesaw and the peace of mind is worth it, not to mention my fingers.
For those who are like me and aren't aware of this, I won't elaborate on the design, but it basically stops the blade if you touch it. This is the sentence that sold me (I'm paraphrasing): In ten years and 70,000+ saws sold worldwide, they have NEVER had a reported digit loss incident. Never. No one has ever cut their finger off on a Sawstop table saw. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this.
So I was looking for any kind of feedback about these saws. Good, bad, whatever. Anyone ever accidentally engaged the brake? Anyone ever had a brake misfire? Does anyone even own one in Australia?
Thanks in advance,
Luke
