Hey John ! You had what I usually call a lucky close call or a
"cheap reminder" of what could had happen. I made some sort of
protection for my router ( it scares the heck out of me!) and had som
incident like Dave too: drum sander catches my fingers on the regular
bases. I said "choice words" as Dave and probably worst since I
have a filthy mouth and an creative mind:
Lucky you , these incidents keep you on your toes and that's good.
Keep making boomerangs!

I have my new router axle back , it's almost finished: last
"misshap" the axle bent and I almost had to change my underwear.
