Don't the hot chips melt the curtain?
It is highly unlikely that any chips traveling far enough to strike the curtain could possibly retain enough heat to melt itQuote:

This curtain idea is great for when there is more than one person working near the milling machine at other work stations or in a one man shop where the machinist has set up the mill to run then has turned to do other tasks.
One should always wear safety glasses in a shop but even the best side guard safety glasses can not always stop all of the tiny airborne chips produced by a mill if you are not directly facing it at all times. the particles can even get by goggles at times.
Another thing I really like about it helps to stop the swarf being spread all over the workshop.
