Jwoodshop

I taught HS woodshop for 25+ yrs. Students had to take a written & performance test on the TS B4 being allowed to use it. Beginners always had to ask permission B4 using it (I stood next to them while they used it) until they & I had the confidence in their ability. I know time is money and most contractors would not spend the time like I did with everyone using company power tools. But think about it, it could have prevented this issue and would have saved $$$$. I blame the employer 80% fault, employee 20% fault and Ryobi 0% fault.
But, like someone wrote earlier, it's like seatbelts, TS companies will be forced to use this safety feature. The consumer will be paying more for a TS but if its safer why not.
I don't agree with how Gass is going about doing this but hey what U expect, he's a lawyer by trade.
As I get on in age, I myself is contemplating selling my 2 Ryobi TS & Delta TS to buy a sawstop TS.
