I wouldn't trust those. A friend has one, costs over $100 when 'triggered', I thought a wet board would trigger it.

We had a search for cause yesterday, came up empty handed.

Yea, then it trashes your $250 Forrest blade……...

seen it before. very impressive.
but, given it destroys the blade and prolly does a J-O-B on the saw i'd be curious as to if it is susceptible to false sensing such as semi-moist wood. also, how often you would have to check the alignment. also, does it have a circuit checker (light or buzzer) that would let you verify the safety device is fully operational or can be abled/disabled.
was also intersting how the guy immersed his hand in the water before the test. i understand being overly cautious but don't think i'd be operating the saw with a bucket of salty water next to my hand for immersion prior to every cut.
just sayin

Ya, I first saw the demonstration about five years ago and my sentiment was the same. I buy high end saw blades, and I expect my old Unisaws to maintain runout and alignment tolerances.

Also, I've never met an old crusty woodworker that didn't have the old crusty leather like mitts that come with the trade. Definitely not the "wet hotdog" consistency.

And you're on to something with the occasional piece of wet lumber, surely to #### up your day inadvertently ….:msp_mad:

i'm afraid to watch it. i have weak stomach and no toerance topain

I wonder how pitches might trigger as in pine.

I saw a demonstration the creator of that device put his finger into the saw blade. It literally nicked his callouses that was it and he did it fast. I was sick to my stomach. I would not be a product tester for it.

 

[CMNRallye79]

The device I saw "threw" an aluminum honey combed piece of metal into the blade.

With that club hand he won't be messing with carburetor adjustments when he should be cleaning the air filter.:msp_smile:

 

[atvguns]

He would think we didn't like him if we didn't pick on him.

Atleast he can still do this :msp_thumbsup:

Had that 066 Mag running yesterday,found all the parts except the air filter cover. It was turning 14k with the dual port muffler,I need to pull the limiter caps and richen it up before I take to the timber and fine tune it in some big hedge I need to cut. I think this dog will hunt.
