I've "tried" it. Sort of. Put a dehumidifier in the workshop and forgot to
turn it off while working. You know, they make paper out of wood fibers,
and that's what I had in the wet cooling vanes and in and on the collection
bucket.

The kind they make to catch lint from the dryer doesn't work that well,
either.

But what if I had a cyclone which emptied into a bin with a little
water in it? The water would catch all/most of those sparks. Not only
that, but it would be nice just for plain wood chips, since it would
help keep them under control when you detatch the bid to dump it
out... and it would help guard against some other DC-related fire
hazards (like hitting a nail or something).
