A guy asked me why the dust make as I was sawing up some old 6061 sheet on a table saw.
I told him the bit I had heard about aluminum exposure and Alzheimer syndrome and mentioned that the powdery oxides I figured were a metal form I didn’t want to breathe.
He figures if any of it was true the trades would know and exposure risk would be published material everyone would have seen.
I figure ok, but I’m still wearing the dust mask.
A bit later he sends me this and a note to keep the dust mask on.

Human Exposure to Aluminum Linked to Familial Alzheimer’s Disease - Neuroscience News
That’s current but the suspicion goes back years..
