Day 147 of #LMB365 shows some aluminium and copper swarf created by the Technical Instrumentation Workshop. Swarf is the technical term for the metal removed during the machining process and is generally small chips or spirals that can be extremely sharp. The swarf is kept separate (copper, brass, aluminium, stainless steel etc) making it easier to recycle.
