Kevin might have different profils. He can be a new excited member that didn't take the time to read the wiki, he can be an relatively advanced user that believes he knows everything (but actually doesn't), he can also be an long-term makerspace member that believes rules do not apply to him anymore. Kevin also has little time to spend on his project, thus neglect the time he should invest in cleaning after himself. | Kevin might have different profils.

Wood dust does not mix well with the oiled ways and bearings of metal working machines (or you could say that it mixes too well) turning way oil from lubrication to a sticky glue-like mess. | Wood dust does not mix well with the oiled ways and bearings of metal working machines (or you could say that it mixes too well) turning all the way oil from lubrication to a sticky glue-like mess that requires a thorough cleaning and re-oiling. | ||
The same goes the other way, the possible heat and sparks of metalworking does not mix well with flammable wood dust. | The same goes the other way, the possible heat and sparks of metalworking does not mix well with flammable wood dust. | ||

=== | ===Another spin on the saw=== | ||
While working on his project, Kevin needed to cut some metal. He knew that depending on what metal he was to cut in the chop saw, he should use different blades, and he was to cut Aluminium. So far so good. | |||
He removed the steel blade from the saw and put it back on the wall, and took down the aluminium blade and mounted it. Still good. | |||
What he didn't check was the large arrows that shows what direction the blade is supposed to spin, so he fitted it backwards and then tried to saw his metal piece. | |||
Not satisfied with the result, it did cut terribly slow, he pushed harder and harder to get through the aluminium piece, managed to get trough and left it at that. | |||
Running the chop saw with the blade backwards, and/or pushing it down with excessive force, will result in damage to the saw. | |||
These blades are quite expensive (~1500SEK each), and last a long time if you use the right blade, mount them the right way around and do not feed with excessive force. | |||
