14″ Laguna Band Saw
The San Diego Fine Woodworkers Association recognized from the beginning that a saw that coasts for over a minute is bad news. They used to require a physical guard to be placed over the blade while it coasted but now the blade stops in just a few seconds, thanks to our Power Tool Brake!
15″ JET Band Saw
This 15" band saw stops in less than a second and also illustrates how electrical door interlocks can be easily integrated to work with the MAKESafe System. This is an old image and shows our old two-button control panel. Our three-button control panel is now standard on all devices (see other images).
Lathe Tool Sharpening Grinder
The San Diego Fine Woodworkers Association sharpens a lot of lathe tools. Their grinder would run for over 2 minutes after being turned off so they reached out to us. After a quick install, this grinder now stops in less than 2 seconds. And since this grinder sometimes get unplugged, the power outage protection we provide helps keep everyone safe and happy.
