Ya, actually my mom was from Thailand and when she was in college, this one guy, a really stupid senior, was using the grinder and something got stuck inside of it, so he stuck his hand inside of the grinder , *with the cord still plugged into the wall * and took the thing out that was inside jamming it, and so it started to spin again...And well...finger stuck inside grinder...i think you know what would happen...3 fingers ...so ya...just a warning. But always try to be safe when working with power tools. No one on our team has lost a finger or done anything like that, but I'm still precautious around power tools because of that story my mom told me.
