My miller will not shut off when it lights and cut is done..

I blow it out, and it if fine. Something on the board is shorted out by the metallic dust.

(in steel mills I learned to clean off the top of a panel before you open them) Flash.. poof..

The black iron powder that the edm creates in the bottom of a bowl.. I think it is explosive too. I used to make lil baggies of brake grinding dust to throw into camp fires for s&giggles at the lake. A lil bit of magnesium a bit of brake grit.. a bit of sulphur.. .
