    Edm smoke containment / extraction methods?

    Hi

    Just wonderin if anyone has designed any inovitive enclosures for their Manual EDM machines ?

    I have Baron Max KE320 (simalar to Charm 2LC etc )

    Have a fairly low powered extractor pipe but with long running roughing , i still seem to breathing in a fair amount of fumes if I don't wear a mask.

    But with all the degrees of movemnt a cover is quite tricky to design.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

    Cheers Kev

    Get a stronger blower to draw the smoke.
