Pro Tool Reviews actually suck his hand in the Bosch React Saw


Recommended Posts

Thought someone was going to finally do what I always wanted to see like he was going for at the beginning. Then he lost his nerve. Can't say I would have had the guts either.

The thing is...I'd do it but if I thought more than a few moments about it with the saw on, I couldn't. Even though you know it works, the sound and knowing what a saw can do will outweigh the knowledge that the system will work.

NO WAY I would try that.

What if??? Machine Malfunction comes to mind.

 

One pays a big premium for this type of saw, "malfunction" is NOT a option! Doing it on purpose, is another thing. However, I am going to look deeper in to the warranty, and guarantee of these saws. I am worried about the technology that allows the owner to disable the safety function, in order to cut wet wood, and that option to malfunction. In closing, I think both are innovative technologies, and I hope they don't stop making these safety features better.

Don't get me wrong. I really think the saw stopping technology is a really good idea. But I'm not going to test something on purpose like the saw just to prove a point. I also hope they continue to improve the technology. Still..... I've seen big machinery malfunctions before that cost alot more than that saw does.

I like my 1970's Powermatic table saw. I know that it doesn't have any of the safety features on it. I just have to be alot more careful. I have to watch and think of what I'm doing.

I don't have any problems watching anyone else test the saw out to see if it stops. It's just not for me. I wouldn't do it.  

 

Just post pictures!!! LOL

Knock on wood, I haven't had a run in with the band saw, 50 hours a week you make friends with the blade lol

Well I was hoping he would just brush his finger on the blade, not slam his palm down on, but I guess he was simulating a slip or bind and wrench

Exactly, I'd risk taking a chunk out of my finger. I've done it before, didn't really hurt tbh.

Also hit the bone on another finger with a knife when I was in high school, again not that bad...just bloody.

Gotta hand it to him, i wouldnt have done that. Good to see the technology work. Was it me or was he a little pale in the face at the end haha.


He just stuck his hand in a saw you blame him? Lol

The only problem is A concord carpenter had a problem with both of the saws he got as review units having issues with power. The variable blade speed seems to be the issue.

Couple guys had this issue, even heard it slowing down bad on smaller dimension hardwood

It would have been hilarious if someone would have been below the camera squirting streams of fake blood in front of the camera!
