Default Router Bit Tip

I was using a Dremel Router base and kept blowing to clear the wood dust so I could see the lines.While working on a sign I kept noticing when the wood shavings would get caught on the bit shaft that the shavings around the bit would be blown away.So I tied a short peice of sewing thread on the bit shaft with the ends left about 3/4" long.Try to tie the knots so the thread ends are on opposite sides to keep balanced some.Tony
