Tablesaw Invention - Never Lose A Finger Ever Again

[Old Moparz]

Any woodworkers on this forum? Anyone else use a tablesaw regularly like I do? You might like to see what I just saw. (No pun intended...lol) I've used my saw for over 30 years & have never had an accident, but it's always in the back of my mind that one day I'll end up needing duct tape to put a finger back on so I can open a beer.

This is a really cool invention, wait until you see the high speed camera when the inventor uses his own finger to test it.

I'd consider retrofitting my saw if that's possible, but until then I'll just be careful.

Been working with wood and making furniture since high school.  It's been out there for quite a few years but the "aint cheap" problem has kept it from gaining a foot hold with saw manufacturers and as a retro fit.
