OK I understand now.

I didn't get it because I can't immagine doing that. It would lust launch
the wood :-)

I don't follow. Like when you would use the RT to mill a dado or

groove?



Dados and grooves are OK, I'm talking edges.

I've seen newbies run a board between the bit and fence when forming an
edge. The work can get shot off the table like it's shot from a cannon!

While this may seem obvious to some, I've seen it attempted more than
once, so I thought I'd mention it again. G

It is difficult to believe unless you have actually done it. The bit just
grabs it and fires it right out.
I haven't tried it and am not going to, but I wonder if you came in from

the
left if it would be more stable. Maybe then it would shoot up into your
face instead of out to the side; which would be rather worse.
