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

Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider

Re: Altendorf, The inventor of the slider
My local Stiles rep stopped by today. The hand saver option is only available on the F45 Elmo controller equipped saw. Top of the line, near $75k. Gulp. They do hope to bring it down the line
