When I was a kid I saw my father cleaning some transmission parts using the bench grinder. One of [these](http://www.amazon.com/577102-JBG-8A-8-Inch-Bench-Grinder/dp/B00004T9KW/ref=sr_1_7?s=power-hand-tools&ie=UTF8&qid=1323779100&sr=1-7 "Tooltip FTW!") things, except without any sort of guards or caution stickers.
Well, in my infinite wisdom I figured such a device could also cut my fingernails much faster than a traditional nail clipper. So I proceeded to stick my finger on the spinning grinding wheel.
Luckily my father noticed and as soon as my finger touched it one time (causing it to *jump* off the grinding wheel) he switched it off and began teaching me a lesson in wtf I could have done to myself by grinding away a half inch or so cut into a steel clutch plate.
Had my finger gotten stuck between the wheel and the body of the grinder, it probably would have been ripped off.
