I have been trying to think of a way to add the type of cover they have on large CNC machines. The multi-sheet telescopic type that remain flat. As a temporary measure I have installed a high temperature barbecue grill mat (from amazon) cut to size. It does need to be managed occasionally but it keeps the swarf off the ways. Ed. |
