Nothing happened...but...

I was working on the mill today.

I got a little close and suddenly noticed my head was just two inches away from the spinning drawbar on top of the mill. I'd forgotten to put the cap on.

A puff of air and some long hair...would have been bad.

Keep that cap on the drawbar. My mistake is putting it nearby but too far away to see it and remember. Maybe get in the habit of setting it on the mill table while changing out?
