September 21, 2007, Newsletter Issue #46: Specific Ways To Stay Safe In The Shop

Tip of the Week

Here are some basic safety tips for you to consider when using specific products in the woodworking shop:

If using glue or thinners, always put them in a safe place away from things that may cause them to light. This goes for rags you’d use with them also.
Always put the lids on paints, stains and bottles.
Keep your work area well ventilated with incoming fresh air.
If your shop is in the basement, remember there are standing pilots to consider from the hot water tank. If the fumes reach a standing pilot, it will light.
