Stercorarius Posted September 6, 2016 Report Posted September 6, 2016 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.
BMack37 Posted September 6, 2016 Report Posted September 6, 2016 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. 1
JimboS1ice Posted September 6, 2016 Report Posted September 6, 2016 Finally someone got brave to do it, I'd do it if I got to keep the sawJimboSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5
LarryS Posted September 6, 2016 Report Posted September 6, 2016 NO WAY I would try that. What if??? Machine Malfunction comes to mind. 2

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. 1

overanalyze Posted September 7, 2016 Report Posted September 7, 2016 Crazy! Made for a good video. Can't see myself trying out the tech just to see...Sent from my SM-T310 using Tapatalk

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. 2 hours ago, JimboS1ice said: I didn't say my whole finger or hand lol just flesh on the tip of one, patch it up and life goes on Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 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 2

KnarlyCarl Posted September 7, 2016 Report Posted September 7, 2016 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

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.
BMack37 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Posted September 7, 2016 Sorry I meant to make that a link, edit isn't working so I can't change it.
Poisonfangs85 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Posted September 7, 2016 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.

DR99 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Report Posted September 7, 2016 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. 1

DR99 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Report Posted September 7, 2016 In his video it was struggling ripping down a 2x4. A new pine 2x4 is like balsa wood it so light.
Hugh Jass Posted September 7, 2016 Report Posted September 7, 2016 Guy could have slapped his dick into the blade and I still wouldn't try it, nope nope nope... 2
DR99 Posted September 8, 2016 Author Report Posted September 8, 2016 I told Dan and Eric to do their test with a real sausage when they did their Bosch React review.
