    CBN is definitely the way to go in my opinion ... just saving up the moolah.

    Love your idea of the earth magnet Evanism

    Now the magnet gets the fuzzies and I just wipe it down occasionally.
    There is a device called a magnetic broom that you can buy or make to pick up ferrous dust.
    Here's mine https://www.woodworkforums.com/showth...44#post1313244

    BTW to catch more metal dust, add a piece of sheet metal to the magnet.
    To remove the dust wrap the sheet metal and magnet in a glad wrap - then carefully peel of the glad wrap so that the dust stays inside.

    None of this prevents metal swarf going all over the place in my shed.
