My scrap rate went from 8% to under 1% after I switched one habit nobody talks about
Two months ago I started wiping my vice jaws and parallels with a dry rag every single load instead of just blowing chips off with air, and my scrap on a 500 piece run of aluminum brackets dropped from around 40 bad parts to 4. Chips were getting smashed into the jaw face and throwing my Z off by a few thousandths, which I never caught until I grabbed a flashlight and looked at the buildup after a guy in our shop pointed it out. Curious if anyone else has a small dumb habit that made a way bigger difference than the fancy stuff.

Did you check if the air itself was blowing oil onto the jaws?
