We keep the shop very clean but I'm looking for an easier way to collect
dust bunnies and small "stuff" that the guys miss when sweeping. I don't
want to go to a manual vacuum. I was thinking of using a roomba device
nightly. Any thoughts?
We don't get metal ships or anything on the floor where this would be used,
only general dust and sometimes small pieces of cardboard and paper, etc.

Unless you're planning on running it only at night, a Roomba can be a
tripping hazard, and should not be used in traffic areas.
How about wall scuppers so that dustpan work becomes unnecessary?

At night only...
Can't because of the way the furniture / machines are arranged in the area
we are talking about. The Roomba fits under the stuff whereas the workers
don't. :)

The traditional approach is to wet-mop the floors nightly. The big
noodle mops can reach under anything that a Roomba can. A wet mop is
far more effective in depressing the dust inventory than any vacuum
cleaner.

For lack of a better way to describe our situation, I think we might be too
lazy to do that when it comes to cleaning... But you are right, that is the
best way.
