Article on the SawStop.

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/...ty-finger-cut/


There is a new saw that Bosch has come out with. The Reaxx also stops the saw but doesn't damage the saw like Sawstop does.

Reaxx is actually what my husband was looking into because the damage caused when it stops is far cheaper to repair than with the SawStop. Reaxx uses a cartridge that is easily replaced, unlike the Sawstop, which is damaging to the saw itself. Now the kicker is that Sawstop took Bosch to court over patent infringement and won.

Here is a yahoo search link to multiple articles regarding it. We held out buying the Reaxx, just in case.

Here is a link to the Reaxx. I guess those who have stock are trying to get rid of them. If Bosch is not allowed to sell the product any longer, as well as the cartridges, then it is lost money to even buy one. I'm glad we waited.
