    I'm Revamping my scene shop rules.  Anybody have good suggestions?  Or if you have an elec copy could you send me an attachment? 

    Here's my email address: stowell_dan@dublinschools.net

    BTW - on the topic of safety - I found this new table saw recently... it is pretty expensive, but if it saves some one's fingers it is worth it.  Anybody have one?  

    http://www.sawstop.com/    If you go to the site check out the hot dog demo, pretty amazing.

     thanks and break a leg!

    If it's a SawStop it is totally worth it. Expensive yes. When touched, the blade drops into an aluminum piece inside. Here's the cath though, it also does this if wood binds, so don't try to rip dimensional lumber which may be warped. It is about $80 to replace the bald every time it drops. ------------------------------ Scott Hasbrouck Wheat Ridge CO ------------------------------

    or if you cut through a staple.  Yes great but you can't really use and wood that you have used before.
