The VA is talking about implanting an ICD (implantable Cardiac Device), in my case an automatic defibrillator. I still have to have some testing to be done to determine if one will work, but the head cardiologist seems to think its that time.
Searches indicate that most, but not all, woodworking equipment is OK. Gas chainsaws are definitely OUT due to their spark system, so I will be looking for a good, heavy-duty electric version. Table saws seem to be iffy (I think maybe it depends on the motor size). Does anyone know about solid recommendations concerning lathes? I currently turn on a Jet 1642 (EVS 1 1/2hp model) and own a Jet 1220VS while my grandson has a Jet 1014 set up in my shop. I'm concerned that on most lathes, the motor seems to be mounted at chest level as part of the headstock. Moving it a couple of feet away should eliminate magnetic field issues.
