I set the Sawstop off today while using a dado set. To best of my (and @Mrksls2’s) knowledge/memory, this is the first time that type of S/S event has occurred here. It was a personal dado set (ouch!), but a new brake is needed…of course, I’ll make good on it, but I’m not sure if we have a spare or not?
I’ll send the dead brake to S/S to have them check to see what caused it to fire…maybe they’ll have mercy and send a free one :–) For now, if anyone needs to make any dado cuts with the table saw, use the Powermatic. That may be good advice in general, actually…this firing was: 1) completely uncalled for; and 2) really f-ing expensive.
Aside, the DMS owned dado stack seemed really dull when I checked it (it was why I used a different set). And dull == dangerous. Just FYI, @Team_Woodshop.
NB: @IanLee, you should probably get yourself added to the team woodshop list; @prl2018 is the current list owner and can do this for you.
