ALT: Unfortunately, SawStart is one-use-only. Once started, the blade cannot be stopped, and must be replaced with a fresh blade while the running one is carefully disposed of.

Cueball just doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to see this truly industry disrupting idea through to the end!

If I had a tablesaw and one of those lamps that turn on when you touch any of the metal, I would do it. Anyone want to invest and get this business rolling?

Lol i'd invest if you also include an emergency shutoff conected to a decent power station (you can compare the best ones on gearscouts.com for backup power) because that saw is definitely taking a finger when the power flickers.

I'm ootl, why is it relevant?

I think OP just means that it’s relevant to woodworking, which isn’t typical of the comic.

Oh I see, thank you.

Some days I'm just a big ol dumb dumb lol
