Need advice from woodworking guys

Nov 22, 2004 28 Replies

I have to smile when I read about all these people who use aprons, smocks, and other such garb while woodworking. I live in a rather warm part of the world. We practically work naked for a better part of the year. Oh yeah and its wet sometimes. In the last 24 hours, some surrounding areas are reporting 20 inches of rain. Dry wood is a relative term around here.

or anywhere else for that matter...

TWS

Geez, thanks for the info. I will be sure to discharge the sprayer toward the floor before I use it on ANYTHING any more. Shuddering... TWS

Regardless, don't use the damn things on people. Tain't worth it. You don't even need a sliver if you have an old (or user-modified new) blowgun without the side holes - the air itself can open a hole. Use a brush.

Shower and changing room between basement and house? lol

2 things come to mind, since it's a basement shop.. the obvious is for hubby to vacuum himself off before he leaves the shop, (sounds weird, but a lot of us do this), and take off his shoes before he comes in the house.. the other thing is something like doormats that trap dirt and sawdust on the stairs from shop to house..

Mental note never visit wood workers in Texas, I really don't need any more nightmares!

I were my apron as protection as much as to keep clean
