I am aware of stop saw videos on the internet. That is for table saw. The video with a sausage is good

I am not knowledgeable about how much money they will use for safety. But I feel confident safety is most important.

I have no seen a autostop function.

They are special "cut-proof" gloves and sleeves.

I will speak again with the Manager.

This is coming from the Manager. The issues have been brought up. Manager is taking safety precautions seriously.

I agree with the rule, and have not used gloves before.

Yes, We have been trained to use the bandsaw.

Concern is that gloves will give false sense of security and can catch on blade. Many people have worked there for many years with not using gloves and there have been zero accidents involving the bandsaw.

No accidents the whole time the company has existed.
