The thing I find most appalling about this whole suit is that Mr. Gass the patent attorney and owner of SawStop is clearly the driving force behind. Without his help the plantiffs lawyer would stand no chance with this case. It would seem that as he is unable to interest saw manufacturers in adding this feature to their saws., which would have them paying him a license fee for every saw they make and jacking up the price of every saw we buy. While I think the Saw Stop is an excellect idea and certainly a smart buy for and inexperienced user or one feels they need the extra margin of safety. I am offended buy Mr. Gass's use of the courts and this ruling as a way to force manufacturers into licensing his technology. I will NEVER buy a saw from which he see's a dime of profit. If he is succesful in this forcing this change, surely someone else will come up with a different and effective break and be able to cut him out of the picture.
