Interesting. I wonder if this has anything to do with changing its one-time use cartridge into a multiple use cartridge to fence off the Bosch design after its patents expire. Or could it be testing a new cartridge for use not only on a tablesaw but also on other machines like a bandsaw.

Sounds like their looking for someone who gets their finger in the blade a lot.

I wonder if you can keep the saw after the trial. It could be a collectible down the road, worth much more than the gift cards.
Will they include some sausages along?

I'll provide the hotdogs....

Seemed weird they asked me since I have their PCS.
I declined because I have been a road warrior with the job lately and don’t see much shop time.

I got an email today that I've been accepted in their trial.
I may do it, because I don't have 220 in my shop yet, and this will give me a saw I can use until I redo all our electrical panels.
