Yesterday at work, I pressed the start switch on my CNC drill and heard the growl of an electric motor that is saying NO. The sound was coming from behind that machine, and coming from our drill sharpener. The switch is in the base and the motor is above it. From between the motor and the base I could see a very bright red glow. I went over to it quickly, and unplugged it. I had used it about 15 minutes earlier and I had turned it off. One post and wire had burned itself off of the switch.
Kind of spooky to think that on a day that no one should have been in the shop, that it could have burned the place down, all on its own.
