    Safety Equipment

    My Dad sells safety equipment, and in three days, he is sitting down to meet with a company that sells supplies to a lot of woodworkers, etc. He wants to try and get their business, so he called me and asked if I would ask all of you what types of safety equipment you all use, so he'll have a...

    Nail Gun Safety

    I had a near miss the other day while nailing oak edging on a recently built workbench so I thought I would post a reminder. I was using 2" pneumatic finishing nails to secure the edging and had my left hand on the benchtop while nailing horizontally with my right hand. One of the nails hit some...

    Chemical Safety

    Years ago when working with epoxies in the electronics industry I developed a hypersensitivity to certain chemical compounds. Tuesday I was working on a workbench top using Gorilla glue and wearing a mask and nitrile gloves. Wednesday morning I awoke with the thin skin under my left eye red and...

    Safety Glasses-recommendations?

    I want to invest in some higher quality eye protection. What I am looking for most is a pair that will not fog up, and something scratch resistant. Anyone have any recommendations?

    Safety Forum?

    Since I have been following posts (less than two years,) I have seen several by injured members who are sharing their tool safety errors and the near tragic results with us after the fact. It strikes me as odd that we have no tool safety discussion forum. Oh now I see it... it's a sub-forum...

    Arc flash safety

    Every day when I open the plant where I work, I turn on our compressor on my way in the door. I have had extensive electrical and arc flash safety training in the past, so by habit I always turn my head away from the switchgear when I close the circuit. I also wear EH rated safety shoes. This...

    The best of ... safety & health

    The is probably the first of a couple "the best of..." posts I'll start. The idea behind it was to get people talking about tools and accessories and whatnot that they've used and really find to be of much use. Sometimes this is the unexpected satisfaction you get from a purchase, sometimes...

    Safety / pressure release quick couplings at Grainger

    I know they're not exactly woodworking tools, but I love safety stuff and bought 4 of these couplers from Grainger to go with my new compressor. They're on sale for about $6.50 depending on size (the couplers, not the compressor). That's 70% off or so while supplies last. No idea how many are...

    Adjustable Safety Clamp

    I was intrigued with the ShopNotes Adjustable Safety Clamp (Vol 18 Issue 103) submitted by Gary Kemper, and proceeded to build one. After I was well into the project, I began to question just how well it would work! Not one to quit, I continued with the project, although the jury is still out...

    Safety mask recommendations???

    I'm generating a lot of dust and the cheap mask I'm using fogs up my safety glasses. I'm trying to decide what is a better mask to use. Woodcraft has 3 that look promising. This one has a exhaust port so it should fog up. http://www.woodcraft.com/product.aspx?ProductID=141916&FamilyID=4230...
