Mot metal grinders appear to be magnetic (lid has a small magnet, holds it together to an extent). See if this is not the case with yours then simply grab up any lil shards. If in doubt sell it then hide

Use a magnet to remove them.

Also buy a grinder that isn't going to fall apart. How the fuck do metal junks get chipped out of your grinder?

This is very common and im supprised more dont deal with this. The majority of metal grinders breakdown over time. You can see aluminum particles in your kief catch if you have one. This has hapend with no name, kanistore, space case, sharpstone, etc. Smoking aluminum will cause Alzheimer and other heath problems. I only use my grinder for hash oil production. I think its a 6 inch space case.

I've never noticed anything break off my grinder besides the screen. Certainly no large chunks. I have probably ground up several pounds with it by now.
