I have not seen one of these in a long time. When I was in elementary and secondary school, I used to spend part of the summer at the family owned printing press. We had one of these. It was a scary machine-the blade was 1.5 meters long. The air table was fun though. It had a light beam curtain and two button actuation for safety. My uncle is missing the tip of one finger due to an accident on an earlier model that did not have all the safety features.
