would you put your finger in there?

[dr thrust]

being a joiner by trade (23 years)no i wouldn't sick my finger in it, i dont think the sensors would stand the test of time, things break on site or regularly malfunction because of the harsh conditions and rough handling, definitely inventing for the sake of it.
also on the video hes purposely cutting wood with the top guard missing to make it look more dramatic, when all you need to be safe is all the guards in place and a push stick to push the final piece of the cut past the blade, an interesting video though

Totally agree mate.

I've used bandsaws with a 5" "band" and the height of a room, and thats just the top half! Took 3mins to get up to speed, had 2 pull wheels that were driven by the machine and NO guards. If that thing got hold of you, you weren't coming out alive...Apparently the machine had claimed a life before it came to the factory I was working for at the time.
