But... it is.

Metal shavings suck. Agreed. This is why you should be careful. If you don't believe me, I'm sure Al would love to testify for a few teams he's seen. And it's not just speed controllers either. Cover all electronics. They aren't cheap, and not only do they jam up moving parts like fans, but they could very likely short out a component... leaving you with a box that can withstand a drop off a building, but can't figure out 2+2.
