last I heard they were not offering retrofit kits for other saws, instead they developed their own line of saws. I believe Sawstop was pursuing a mandate in California that all saws sold there needed to be equipped with their safety equipment, but because it was only available from their product it was turned down for obvious reasons.Bob Hammond wrote:Nice. When the budget permits, I'll upgrade. I wonder if they'll come up with a retrofit for existing popular saws.
Because of worker safety-liability issues, eventually I think all commercial shops will buy these and retire their Unisaws & 66s. In the future I think you'll see many of these used saws available at reasonable cost in good condition.
Very nice purchase Chuck, I am definitely jealous. My saw went to a machine shop Friday afternoon to get the bearings swapped hence no pictures. I'm cleaning up some of the other parts and should get the main chassis back Monday. I'll post some pics as I put it all back together. This is turning out to be a lot more work than I wanted to do but I know I'm going to be happy with the saw when it's all said and done.
