My wife thinks that since I'm getting up there in age that I should get a Saw Stop.
I haven had a crazy shop accident in quite. a while and thought that "don't put your hand near the blade and you won't get cut".
I won't tell her what happened this morning. Not that a Saw Stop would help in a router accident.
I made two mistakes,
1. I only put the router bit in about 1/2" into the collet.
2. I didn't pay enough attention to the hold down bolts on my jig.
Well, Bang, I hit the bolt with the router bit, the router bit pulled out of the router and hit me pretty hard below the belt.
Lucky it was cold outside and I had enough layers on which saved me from getting cut.
