    My "enclosure" thread

    After several years of cleaning up after my TM-2 (leaky pig!) I have had some time and permission to spend some money so this is the frame I am planning to hang vinyl shower curtains from as soon as I get the hooks in. I will use magnets to hold the bottom of the curtain to the splash guards and hopefully 90% or better of the cutting fluid will return to the sump instead of messing my floor up. At the VERY least it will hold the chips from splattering on the walls!

    Everything from McMaster. Couple of hundred bucks I estimate.
