Anyone read the November issue of Pop Science? I was on a flight and didn't bring anything to read so I picked up a copy at the airport.
They wrote an article on the "workshop of the future". I think my favorite thing I am waiting for is the TS that will allow you to enter the width and depth and the saw will automatically set the fence and blade. Won't it be great when we can sit down at the workbench, punch in some numbers on the new TS and then sit back have a cup of coffee, not having to worry about that nasty task of adjusting the tools.
Kinda makes me think of the passionate discusseons we have from time to time on using hand tools versus jointers, planers, etc.
Twenty years from now, us old timers (then not now - LOL) will read with a cynical eye all the "young punks" who brag about their skills of being able to type in measurements correctly and not "fat finger" the numbers.
