I'd be happy with one of those Mini Max SC3W. But space is an issue till next spring.
This one absolutely makes me HOT!

I miss that more than anything. Angela and I used to play with my parents, at least once a week. We even had a proper Canasta Trophy. Neither parent has the patience or the facilities to follow the game anymore.

I should imagine. That's a lot of energy getting dumped in a short period of time.

(Don't tell anybody, but with a small mod, you can insert the batteries backwards, with some interesting results.)

We play once a week (but two, of the four, participants would rather be in the shop) and, if we ever quit, I may even miss getting my butt kicked on a statistically significant basis ...once a week.
That said, it's the company that counts ...

Not to mention what happens in the pants of the guy who sticks his finger into the blade.

Not nearly as big a disturbance, I'd guess, as the one made when said knotheaded kid runs his hand into a non-saw-stopped saw. My observation is that there is a *lot* of activity going on right after that action!

Leon,
I brought mine home a few weeks ago. My wife has been hearing me talk about it for years. When she was working with me at a woodshow last month she saw me demo it and also did a demo herself. She insisted I get one.
I hated getting rid of my old CDN made Unisaw, but this is one kick ass table saw aside from the safety features.
David.

It's the aural equivalent of a slap to the back of the head. :-)

Actually, from the description of the injury (minor abrasion), the person who actuates the stop is going to be more jarred by the noise than the incident. Which is a good thing.

The problem would be when the kids know what is going to happen and do it intentionally, either just to cause trouble or on a dare. At least $100 every time to replace the unit and cheap blade.
The first thing I'd do is remove or paint over everything that said Sawstop on it and just not tell them.

Well if it is an "old school" school, the slap of the blade will be followed by a delayed whack of the pants backside by the shop made paddle.

That might change the monotony of loosing to the queens most every week.
