Swarf collection thoughts please.

[Kram]

The small 90 degree ones. My phone usb is worn out so it needs all the help it can get to stay in and getting a proper charge. If I am using it while charging, this cures the constant annoyance of it pulling out.

Looks like ebay and amazon habe discontinued this type, for bendy type. Might be good but they look bigger.

My Wife calls the semi circular blue chips "toe nails"
Swarf and dirty finger marks on door frames and bog seats are a major concern for me .
She puts up with a lot "wor lass" .

Swarf and dirty finger marks on bog seats

How do you manage that !?! Dont answer! Swarf on the bog seat

We call them "worms" as mine are usually an inch or two long. I am still talking about swarf! I havent reliably managed to get short C curls yet.

Best way Ive found, to clean up delrin swarf is to turn some stringy steel and use a wand to pick up both together, which is what Im doing now.

Big pieces of cardboard are my weapon of choice.

my pet hate with the drill press is the two slots on the bottom mounting plate.....swarf and small drill's get stuck inside.....
all mine (almost 10 of em) have small plates pop riveted over the holes......

Much thanks for the replies .

A combination of @Guzrik 's cardboard and @waddycall 's moving the plastic box plus @Munkul 's splendid magnetic collector, (one ordered and on it's way), should sort things out .

And @roofman , I shouldn't admit this but I have knitting needles and wool in the wagon for when I get bored. Last thing I made was one of those huge tea cozy hats beloved of the rasta boys but OH banned me from wearing it, for some strange reason .

Used to enjoy it when I was younger, but haven't done it for years. Do have a ball of wool & some needles knocking about somewhere though.
