The SawStop Controversy

I am joined by Scott Kip of the Wanamaker Organ Shop to talk about table saws, accidents, amputations, and the seemingly amazing SawStop that can stop a flying blade in a microsecond.... and the controversy surrounding that. Dot also hangs out and I even get a little mini teardown in for good measure. Enjoy!
