Maybe try using a pulldown white screen with an overhead projector flashing pictures of the deer and the buffalo roaming. When you need the stuff behind it just lift the screen. A man with no windows needs help and I'm trying to reach out.
"One of the biggest" - my lathe's bigger than your lathe, doo daa, doo daa :)
Mike,
Dust explosion or simply fire.
Just seemed like a potential. Glad to hear you don't expect any problems.

Please be aware that suspended (in the air) wood dust is potentially explosive when exposed to ignition sources, such as unvented heaters. Consider the use of either a sealed combustion or direct vented heater when heating areas where wood dust is present. Ashoke - heating.products.bz
While this is true, the density has be enormously high for it to happen. Do you have a real-world example of it happening in a workshop outside of a dust collection system? Or even inside of one in a small shop?
I believe this is a true statement - as I recall in one discussion on the wRECk, the levels of suspended dust would have to be so high that anyone in the room would likely be forced out just by the need to breathe and see. I'm not sure any of us would be able to generate that level of dust suspension from a lathe.
