Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider
John,
Paying for any higher end tool requires a different philosophy than the
big-box retail tool buyers.
Paying for safety gear is just another philosophical choice - long-term

Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider
Great video, thanks Wade for mentioning it.
The feature I liked most about the new Altendorf saws was the fence in the middle of the swing arm/table.? Lifting the Felder fence and repositioning it is

Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider
I couldn't get a specific answer to that question, but an Elmo without it
was $50-60k. It is a big ticket accessory at the moment. I wonder if the
European market will require it on all new saws at

I was told the Felder PCS was about a 9kUSD upgrade when I ordered my stuff a year ago, provided it was available on the model ordered.

Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider
Jacques,
$10,000 for effective safety industrial equipment is a bargain, considering the damage a table saw can do to a person. The cost impact on a business is huge, too. The change in focus on

Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider
John,
I read somewhere that the Felder technology (PCS) added about 10K $ to the cost of the machine. Assuming this is the right ? order of magnitude ? it becomes easier to see how this extra cost

Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider
Jason, did the Stiles rep tell you how much the hand saver adds to the cost of the machine?
I¡¯m just curious, as I am not in the market for a $75,000 saw. I like the idea of the safety feature, but
