You can save tour digits just by operating the tool properly.
Comment on How Much Would You Pay to Make Sure You Never Sawed Off a Finger?
grrgyle@slrpnk.net 7 months agoI mean that’s objectively expensive, but a ~thousand to for safety equipment that could save someone’s digit sounds super cheap.
Then there’s just the intangible morale boost working with tools designed with your safety and well-being in mind.

True. Also accidents never happen.

Not often enough to force everyone to pay a premium to have sawstops installed on every saw. If they want to make it an osha thing for professionals maybe, but I as a hobbyist don’t need or want it. If I did I could buy one already.

This is like saying we should more than double car prices and insist they’re all carbon fibre tubs for safety reasons.
If it moves the product price by such a large margin, you’re only talking about profit motive when trying to exclude products without the parented feature.
