Cleaning up spilled shot

[Jesse Heywood]

If you have a shop vac and want to recover the shot use a piece of pantyhose to capture the shot before it gets in the bag.

If you have a compressed air supply an air powered vacuum works great for cleanups around the bench. It is also good for cleaning up powder safely. This one is a Sunex SX 1000.

Well--speaking as an armchair internet warrior, I'll bet Jesse's attachments would blow the ashes and cookies out from under the keys on my 'puter....

Be careful about using any electric vac to clean up powder. There is a real fire hazard.

The air powered vac won't introduce an electric spark/arc ignition source. Very clever. Thanks for posting that.

Yes but then you will get a "run" in one of your pantyhose and have to buy another pair. Please don't use your Black ones.
