sounds to me like the blade was:  
a.) cracked by the arbor hole  
b.) overspeeded by a good deal (they have a 1 1/2 safety margin built into the run speed)  
c.) brought onto the material sideways or twisted in the cut  
d.) faulty.

when they go, they GO. sounds like a bomb going off.

You know HRK it’s about time you do a project for youself, seeing as you have a 240sx. And we have some beefier motors laying around. 😉
