New word for me: filing debris!

1 comments

Filing or cutting debris from a lathe or mill.

Something important to remember if you come across it, never pick it up with a bare hand because it can be razor sharp and never wear gloves when using a machine tool like a lathe unless you want to loose a hand... or worse.
