I got this message so I removed a whole bunch of files on this external USB drive
Now that I have 27GB free I pressed continue, but this same dialog returns after about 1 second. Pressing on "Stop writing files" does the same. I'm a bit worried about force-quiting the app but I don't seem to have any choice. Is this a known bug?

Shouldn't use the TM drive for this. It wants to hold space for itself. I think you need to get another drive. 27G left is very full for video, especially for a large drive, which I assume this is if it's used for Time Machine.
Like Tom said, 27GB is very little and FCP X should not be store events and projects in a drive that is also used for Time Machine backups.
You clearly need to get another external hard drive. Use the current one for Time Machine, put your FCP X stuff on the other. And, really, you'll need a third one for backing up your video.
Yeah - I realise that a TM drive should'nt be shared with data. I just ordered a new drive to become my video drive. However, I also just tried to run a Repair Disk on this drive and it seems to be quite sick (Disk Utility can't repair the disk). So that may have been confusing FCPX.
"Out of disk space" dialog keeps coming back
