I recommend not laying the handset on the belt of your belt/disk sander
station - especially if the switch was inadvertently turned on while the
machine was unplugged.

Just a thought. No particular reason.

Damn!

I know a person (very well, in fact) who did the same trick with one of
those divided boxes filled with different sizes of woodscrews. This person
was very upset.

Did you know that metalworking lathes have more torque?

Hmm reminds of a time I plugged in the belt sander (hand) and it was still
in the locked on position and was on a 20' extension cord... Duh

So what was your time in the twenty?

They's fast, ain't they? Good think it was only a 20' cord!

(At least that's what I've "heard".)

Gosh. After these posts - I feel better. I thought I was the only one who
did things like this!

By the way, the phone survived in fine shape with a few sander scuffs.
After some sanding in place on the belt it shot it up against the stop, flew
up into the air, bounced off of a wire frame shelf and almost landed in my
hand. No, I am not that coordinated. Just lucky.

Ron that's the reason I have a safety on my lathe that if the power has
been interrupted in any which way it will not start up if you would plug
it back in or turn it back on while it is in forward of reverse mode, I
have to turn of the power switch then set the lathe switch to neutral
and then turn the power back on, seems awkward but it done quick and it
is safe that way.
No I do not have that on my sander, I don't have or want a cell or porta
phone, when I'm turning I don't answer phones, LOML will do that and if
it ever is for me I do get informed, (they can never leave me alone (G)

Have fun and take care

Be sure to adhere EXTRA-rigidly to this rule when winding up the cord
on the hair dryer after showering...particularly if the towel around
your waist isn't snugged up tight (or is absent!).

Don't leave your Coke setting around uncovered while you are busy
working and then take a drink later. Bees like coke too. One stung me
right on the tip of my tongue and left the little stinger in just
pumping away. Talk about hurt. OHHHHH

Every wonder what would happen if you put your jointer knives in backwards,
but were too timid to try it.

Well, it makes setup real difficult and doesn't leave a good edge.

Oh, I've got a phone in the shop. The ringer is disabled so that I

want to be able to dial 911.

I have NEVER unwound only 30' of a 100' extension cord reel and
plugged in a chain saw and then wondered 20 minutes later where the
smell of burning rubber was coming from - after the first time.

FoggyTown

My father years ago was cutting wood with a power saw, all of a sudden
the saw stopped, he turned round to blast us kids when he noticed that
the power cord of the saw was about 4 inches long.
How the hell he didn't get fried we have no idea because this was
about 81 and the saw was a metail bodied beast.
