Dunno if it's important or not, but in the past few months, I've
generated a 35 gal barrel full of 304 SS chips, in random lengths up
to 20", about .010" to .020" thick. They're available if someone
wants them for experimenting. If we knew a specific thickness was
required for survivablility of the packing, I could hog some of my
rough cuts up to about .050" (although I don't know if chips that
thick will curl as nicely.)
The problem I see with turning chips is that it is full of stress risers. Stainless coil springs make actually hold up.

This is by far the hardest lesson about freedom. It goes against
instinct, and morality, to just sit back and watch people make
mistakes. We want to help them, which means control them and their
decisions, but in doing so we actually hurt them (and ourselves)."
