Please look inside the machines sometimes for cleaning

Today I needed to cut a small scrap piece to put under my stuff on the drill press.
But before I could, I had to clean up some light dusting on the top of the band saw.

Then I decided to look inside. My oh my. What a mess.
Please when you are cleaning up after yourselves, if the machine has an easy access panel, open it, check for more dust.

It took me about 10 minutes to get this whole thing cleaned up so I could make my 5 second scrap cut.

I personally vacuumed out that saw at the Saturday work session, so it has filled up again since then.

Adding to this, the Sawstop and Delta table saws are really prone to this. They both can look like Tatooine inside after a few days with no cleaning.
