I did it ... once. I was milling my strips in the driveway and fed one in going with the rotation. The router pulled it out of my hand ... and launched it like a javelin at about waist level. It flew all the way across the street and slammed into the side of my neighbors house ... lucky there wasn't some kid passing through on a bicycle. Never did it again!
