including the speakers in earphones. If you let earphones hang in front of you and drag on the ground in front of the grinder while adjusting your respirator, said magnets will pick up small pieces of steel. At this point, it's preferable to clean those steel particles off of the earplugs prior to putting them back in your ears:o:foot::p

That is all:D
 
I hear (:foot:) that it's like shoving a dirtclod in your ear, only the dirt is filled with sharp lil' needles. Not painful but not pleasant either.
 
I have had mine at work pick up metal chips and yes it does not feel good. that brings upa funny story though. one day i was at work and this was when i was new there so i was not that accustom to how the metal chips get every where. so any way i keep a water bottle at work as i drink a lot of water. any way my through is fealing itchy and keeps bugging me for a few days well one day i was coughing real hard and out came a large steel chip from my throat. some how it must have gotten into my watter bottle on on the mouth and went and got its self stuck in my throat. it kinda shocked me when i coffed it up.
