Changed the coolant/cutting fluid in my saw- PITA

You guys could have been on Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe!
 
Yeah on top of the disgust is the fear of having you gloves cut open by sharp-edged debris. Worse, then that debris cut your fingers, allowing in that nasty stuff containing who knows what. Yeah, it can do a real head job on you if you let it, but it should be done when you buy something just because. Since my lathe is just for my hobby, once it was cleaned, and because I wouldn't be using coolant, I blocked off and sealed the sump grating.
