I was using the drum sander, put my hand on top of it, and got a huge zap that made my arm go weak. I looked down to see a big spark jumping from the coils in the hose to the hose clamp every two seconds or so. It was blue and about 1" long.
Needless to say, I've run a ground wire through it now.
Oddly, it only built up energy and sparked while actually running material through it, not while the DC and machine were running with no wood in it.
