I was horrified, after I took a #macro #photography and saw that my "clean" finger was filled with #swarf #particles imbedded in the #fingerprint after 3 hours of just teaching in a #machineshop that day.

The danger depends on the type of lathe and the tools being used with it.
In metalworking, you would probably be using mechanical lathe tools, keeping your hands far away from the danger bits. In woodworking, you may be using gouges directly on the wood and want to keep any dangly bits as far away as possible.
Nah, even in metalworking, people do lots of stuff around lathes and get hurt because of long sleeves. Like running sandpaper on round stock which is a common thing people do. Anything that spins means no rags, no sleeves, no gloves etc. And for good reasons
I do CNC lathe. I could run it with the door open but don’t due to coolant. It shouldn’t run with the door open but it does run like that. Safety interlock is long gone. I roll my sleeves back on my flannel jacket and button the cuffs. I sweat a lot and the breeze that brings me fresher air makes me get cold easily.
I have seen the Tool Time episode where Tim The Toolman Taylor has his shirt ripped off by a lathe and am very aware of the danger every day. The green button doesn't get pushed until doors are closed.
