Abstract
A spark trap device for containing sparks and metal filings generated when a chop saw cuts a metal includes a base plate receiving a chop saw to collect sparks and metal filings from the chop saw. Each of a pair of channels is coupled to opposing sides of the base plate and the chops saw is positioned between the channels. Each of the channels has one of a pair side walls coupled thereto and extending upwardly therefrom. A rear wall is coupled to and extends upwardly from a rear end of the base plate and is coupled to the side walls. A lid is hingedly coupled to the rear wall. The lid extends between the side walls when the lid is positioned over the side walls. The rear wall, the side walls and the lid deflect the sparks towards the base plate when the chop saw is in use.
