Many of us are well-aware of SawStop and their finger-saving technology. They came on the scene a few years ago showing us that the machine will apparently cut everything but a hot dog. That was cool an all, but apparently when cable TV is showcasing your product, you need to kick it up a notch. Inventor Steve Gass, while on a Discovery tv show actually demonstrated the product by using his own finger, instead of the lame old hot dog. FINALLY! Its actually a very cool clip so check it out. The link was sent to me by Michael. Thanks dude.
