I did start this profile because of the incident. I am mostly a computer geek, but that being said it does not mean I don't know how to use tools or what I am doing.

I checked there were no loose, broken or damaged parts Before I used it.

There were no loose or damaged parts. It was a flaw in the design and materials in my case.

It was not used all that much, maybe 5 hours of operation maybe less, but that being said it does not mean it was not taken care of, and maintained. And I want it replaced for nearly either killing me or seriously injuring me which that was a catastrophic failure. If it just broke without...

The only cut that was on the pipe was curved and slanted and 3-4 inches away from the blade, and that cut lined up with a piece of the lower blade guard I still have the piece of pipe, but l used it to see what tool would be best for cutting square holes in the side of the pipe so its not in the...

The pipe had nothing to do with it. the blade did not even touch the pipe. And I was cutting the pipe to make a raceway for my computer cables so they are all nice and neat, and pulled up and out of the way of my wireless network card's antennas. Yes I am a computer geek, but that being said it...

Did the pipe explode or did the saw?

I will never have a facebook account, they keep everything indefinitely and sell info. so that option is out. I would totally use it if facebook had better policies.

Whats to miss, the blade did not even touch the pipe before it exploded. and its a saw it supposed to cut things, I had it clamped down. because it was a pipe. I cut out the part that was cut by a flying piece of the lower guard with a manual hack saw because I was done with power tools for...

I will be wearing a full face shield from now on though, I was completely missed by all flying debris, But I guess it was a trade have it happen later and get completely missed by debris or have it happen earlier and have debris hit your face-shield.

there should be no comment on the PVC pipe because it exploded before the blade even touched the pipe at all the only cut on the pipe was the result of a piece of the lower guard that flew off the cut was slanted and curved in a way that was impossible for the blade to do and it was 2 inches...

I am not sure, but no matter how old it is this is unacceptable for how well it was taken care of and the great condition it was in.

The blade did not even touch the pipe at all, the laser guide flew apart into two pieces that is what caused it to explode and I did have it clamped down. a piece of the lower guard made a large cut I found the piece and it lined up perfectly with the slanted and curved cut in the pipe. this had...

Thank you.
