Default Re: Question for a machinist

I am turning my wheels from 2" T-6 alum.. I have to take them down to 1.700". When roughing them in I am taking big cuts at a fast feed rate and the "worms" I call them coming off the cutter are long stiff and sharp. I have already taken a couple to the face. I have to stand there and fight them off and I was just wondering what would stop this.
