| Has anybody heard of a shield to shield the cutter from | flying leads during hand cutting of through hole components. | If it collected the leads also that would be helpful. | I am thinking of plexiglass or something that the board | could be placed under. Ryan: We have built some cages, triangular sides and a top that goes part way down so that the operator can get his hands and the board underneath. A word of caution, you can't use plexi if you have any ESD considerations. The plexi generates incredble static. We had to use a static dissapative plastic that is about 7 times more exspensive than plexi.
