Hi Kward

I got to ask what did that ?

The mounting screws break free
or
It looks like the bit came free and took the router base with it. wow...
woodworkers nightmare....

Looks like it's time to get the SUPER glue out

Yikes, you indeed are lucky there was no injury, like BJ says, what happened besides the router blew up. Wow.

If that didn't call for a change of drawers, nothing will.

Good to have you with us in more ways than one.

Let me guess.. The fence was on the wrong side of the bit and a the stock was fed into it the wrong way.

Strange that the shot wasn't taken of the router table and where is the motor?

Where the rest of the router table out in your drive way. We need a discription of what happened here so we don't do the same thing.
