I swear I saw Boyd Coddington running the lathe (spindle) backwards.
This was the episode where the 65 Yellow Mustang was in the shop and the hood wouldn't close. Boyd had one of those moments where he had to get his hands in the pot and chucked up a little carburetor flange in the lathe to reduce its height.
He appeared to be looking where to turn the thing on.
It occurred to me that the boring bar he was using was mounted upside down but I didn't see that in time.
He eventually knocked the work out of the chuck after making a few chips.
