That's cool. My cousin invented a device that electronically shocks the hand for physical therapy because he cut a couple fingers off with a circular saw.

So much for using my table saw to cut hot dogs in half. I guess I'd have to use the band saw.

Better hurry JJ, there working on a bandsaw version. I call on the local distributor for these and he has a hard time selling them to schools because they cost about &#036;800 more and that the students get lazy with them and there worried that when they get out in the "real world" they will be lax and lop off a hand or two. If I was a teacher with these I would&#39;nt tell them the feature was there till it went off.

I&#39;m corn-fused :blink: So, you go get the shocks and they are sposed to remind you not to stick your hand in a saw blade?[/b][/quote]
The shocks stretches the muscles of the fingers to exercise them. There is alot of stress on a hand when fingers are missing&#33;
