I gotta admit it's a fine bit of work you're doing but, old fart that I am, I would not tolerate a chuck guard, and a little spatter around the perifery of the work area I deem essential for a shop. Just my take . But I do appreciate the nice work you're doing.

Looks like some fun fabrication you have going there Mick. How did you form all the large radii?

Ed, I know you were refering to the OP not my acidic post.

Steve,
A chuck guard is only worth having if is easily used and completely out of the way when it isn't. I use mine all the time. It saves me from walking around with a skunk stripe on my shirt the rest of the day.

I love skunks! And my wife keeps telling me I smell like one.
