Who else has caught their machine on fire this year?

It's been a couple of weeks since the incident and we can finally admit we caught our robot on fire. We switched a PWM into another Victor 888 and a loud pop and flames a couple of inches high resulted. The damage was isolated to just the Victor. A replacement was put on with no incidence. We suspect the culprit was metal shavings sneaking into the Victor but no real evidence. Anyone else ever have open flames on board?
