MicroJig is launching a complete solution aimed at halting all table saw injuries, from kickback to finger amputation, with the GRR-RIPPER Complete.

“This kit has everything a woodworker needs to create projects with top-to-the-line precision, safety and control,” MicroJig CEO Bruce Wang said in a statement. “My dad started this company in his garage and invented the GRR-RIPPER because he was tired of how ineffective push sticks are at controlling material on a table saw. The GRR-RIPPER Complete is a culmination of over 15 years of continual innovation and relentless product improvement.”

“We are on a mission to end all table saw injuries by 2020. The industry has gotten complacent about protecting the operator, assuming injury is a necessary risk. We think working with wood and building with your hands should be safe for all.”
