I work a lot with headpins and various wire types in my studio. When I cut any wire I try to guard the piece with my hand and cut it away from me so that the wire doesn't go flying or if it does, it at least goes away from me.
I may eventually be teaching classes soon at a place locally. If I'm showing people how to cut wire I don't need wire hitting people who are learning how to work with it. Any other thoughts on how to keeps bits from flying?
I already shield the piece with my hand when cutting and cut away from me.
Thanks.
