Shavings-

This thing makes a MESS. You need to have it somewhere you can sweep easily, or shop vac.

I can see there being PILES of shavings in a situation where you are doing any real work. Also, They are hard little pieces of steel. Dont let anyone walk barefoot anywhere near where this thing is in use.

This is what Ive got after 3 cuts through 2 inch 3/16s steel plate.
