Stranger in the shop?

I actually use that red thing quite often. I don’t like not being able to see the floor especially with most of my tools on casters

Its a cellulose fibre dispersal reduction tool. Modeled after the charge coupled device (CCD) arrays on remote sensing satellites collects and collates cellulose fibres that have been dispersed through out a given area, but the concentration of these fibres are generally nearest power tools or enthusiastically applied handplanes. LOL!

I’m with PurpLev I apply mine to the dispersion often:-)

The cellulose fibre dispersal reduction tool normally comes in a set like this.

And over the years I have been able to collect the full set.

I think mine is there just to trip me as I walk by, maybe trying to tell me something?

A planer, a tablesaw, several handplanes, ALL putting a nice layer of wood debirs on my floor. The biggest collection is from the planer. It’s pile of stuff collects under the bench vise. It’ is kind of nice to stand on that pile while working at the vise. Better than bare concrete.

I have one too, mostly I use it to push sawdust under the workbenches and table saws where it belongs.

You guys don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s a brush for applying BLO to large projects. First you slop it on with the red-handled brush, then you wipe off the excess with one of these:

So that’s what that da-n thing is for—debris dispersion—and I suppose that that other funny lookin thing with the long handle and flat blady thing has something to do with debris concentration?
