I think my feeds were too low and speed was too high: I have filled my workshop and hands with millions of invisible steel needles.

I have spent *literal hours* picking them out of my fingers with tweezers under a microscope. My god. I keep finding more! There has to be a better way 🤣

Machinist friends: do you have any tips? Should I be attempting to get bigger chips? Or just try to limit spread/exposure? Or just live with it??? Metalhands!!

Not too shabby! I’m very pleased with this.
