		I've had metal shrapnel lodged in my eye. Something not very fun about someone picking bits of metal

		That's the thing it doesn't throw much if any metal shrapnel at all its not like a grinder when you have bits flying everywhere

Yeah to be fair my incident was with an angle grinder, didn't hurt to start with but 24h later a bit of steel had rusted in my eye, that was agony

		Guys - before anyone starts jumping down spikes throat can I just say that its not the first time he'd used this reciprocating saw and knew that nothing gets thrown back from it. Had he of been using an angle grinder or anything else that we knew of that threw bits around he would of worn goggles. He's not a twat and doesn't need lecturing.

		And some other assorted panels and exhaust sections as well but the main lesson learned is to cut up the sections as small as possible as it makes loading and unloading much easier :0
