Right,

We've dealt with that by using double sided tape (especiallly if your running dry, we run wet so its hard) and by just making sure we have enough clearance between the holder and the material so when the piece does get flung it doesn't get caught.

For us the tradeoff of 5 hours vs 35 minutes is pretty huge. So we just have a kid sit there and make sure everything is g2g.

A vacuum table should hold it down well, but most routers don't have one.
