I just had a thought.
I know its tough.
Most high quality table saws outlive their owners and become
either generational or sold. They don't end up in the scrap yard.
So my thought....I know, does it hurt?
Is that if you look at the price of a saw and its long term return
for you, your son or daughter, or some guy at a auction is peanuts
compared to any injury incurred by anyone.
Remember the body part you save may not be your own.
