Default Use shop VAC when cutting fiberglass or CF

Anyone take their shop VAC plastic hose and put it in a vise pointing straight up and cut their cowlings and CF stuff right above it? I can't remember if got the idea here or just made it up but it works great. I cut all sorts of CF and fiberglass and no mess or health hazards. Now I just don't enjoy the jet engine sound of my 5HP Dirt Devil shop vac. I actually use ear plugs ehen I use it some times.

PS: Anyone wondering if I ever sucked a work piece into the shop vac, yes it just happened today. No biggy.
