Manufacturing some of the most sophisticated woodworking equipment in the industry, SawStop has reinvented table saw technology, performance and safety. Accordingly, M&M Tool and Machinery is eager and proud to incorporate SawStop and their full line of industrial machines and accessories.
M&M Tool and Machinery is incorporating SawStop, an industry leader in table saw technology, to bring crafters a newer, safer, and more sophisticated woodworking avenue. With their emphasis in a new kind of safety, SawStop has revolutionized the way crafters interact with their equipment and the way that equipment performs at an internal and fundamental level.
SawStop’s industrial cabinet saw and their SawStop contractor saw are designed with a unique electronic safety system built to detect electronic fluctuations at the blade. Essentially, the saw is designed to know when something, particularly flesh, makes even the slightest contact with the blade. Upon detection, an aluminum brake is thrust into the blade, stopping it within milliseconds of said contact. This mechanism has literally saved thousands of crafters from catastrophic injury.
More technically, SawStop’s safety system induces an electrical signal onto the saw blade. This signal is constantly monitored for fluctuations by a digital signal processor. Because the human body is inherently conductive, its proximity and contact with the saw blade produces a fluctuation in the electrical signal which, in turn, understands that the blade has made contact with something other than the cutting material. Within a fraction of a second of this detection, a heavy-duty spring pushes an aluminum block (a brake pawl) into the teeth of the blade forcing it, as well as power to the saw’s motor, to an immediate halt. According to SawStop, this action occurs in just 3 – 5 milliseconds, or 1/200th of one second.
Ultimately, SawStop has evolved both the mechanics of the table saw and the relationship carfters have with their machinery. As such, M&M Tool and Machinery is proud to partner with SawStop and proud to participate in their focus on safety, awareness and staggering high-performance. Welcoming SawStop to their inventory, M&M Tool and Machinery now offers nearly every major woodworking and power tool manufacturer in the industry.

As part of an on-going company commitment to Environmental Procedures and Green Initiatives, construction crews for the Little America Hotel in Salt Lake City recently utilized an increasingly popular woodworking technique to renew their exterior decking at the hotel. M&M Tool and Machinery offers a large selection of power tools to perform this type of work, and is proud to supply companies with the most efficient tools necessary to implement new “Earth Friendly” building practices.
Salt Lake City, UT - August 16, 2008 — As part of an on-going company commitment to Environmental Procedures and Green Initiatives, construction crews for the Little America Hotel in Salt Lake City recently utilized an increasingly popular woodworking technique to renew their exterior decking at the hotel.
Rather than sanding the wood in place, crews for Little America Hotel removed the boards, checked for any nails or stones embedded in them, ran each board through a planer, chamfered the edges, and then reinstalled the boards. To complete this renovation, they purchased the appropriate power tools and supplies from M&M Tool and Machinery.
The crew used the Makita Planer, a tool so portable it can be taken right to the jobsite, allowing for more efficiency and productivity. The Makita Planer has a 12 ½” capacity which allowed the planks to be evenly surfaced and uniform. The DW257 Dewalt screw gun, with 2500 RPM’s and a torque of 132 inch pounds provided the necessary power to remove and replace the 3″ screws quickly. Finally, the Senco Finish Pro 10 Pin Nailer with a 1″ capacity pin nail was utilized leaving a finished hole so small no fill is necessary.
The finished project is not only visually appealing, but the technique used is very eco-friendly. Re-using lumber already on hand saves companies thousands on new material costs. M&M Tool and Machinery offers a large selection of power tools to perform this type of work, and is proud to supply companies with the most efficient tools necessary to implement new “Earth Friendly” building practices.
