This is interesting that no one knows how much the average table saw injuries cost. I know that this is impossible to predict because there is so much variation on the type of injury and the cost of each injury can vary so much. I am sure if you where to have two identical injures right next to one another the cost could be very different. With the whole thing having the saw stop, that technology is great but I have yet to see if work in a real life scenario not one that is staged. I have also heard about the technology misfiring and the saw stop cutting. I would like to see some more hard data on this and see how well it works. How reliable is this?
