Re: Near-death experiences or injuries during build season?

I was working on a piece for the robot at my work (A machine shop) and not thinking turned the lathe on with the chuck key still in. The machine was set to 1000 sum-odd rpm. thank fully the key just fell out but it could have been a lot worse. I broke my number one rule which is always have a hand on the Key. since then i have payed attention a tremendous amount more.
