SAFETY, ALWAYS!

This blog is meant to raise awareness around safety while working on our passion: miniatures!

Recently I bought a wonderful electrical modelling and engraving tool which is incredibly helpful for many purposes, like cutting, sanding, and engraving.

However,  looking at one of its accessories at work, a sharp toothed disc rotating at high speed, made me aware of the potential safety hazards generating from its usage. This involves not only possibly cutting your fingers in a very nasty way, but also getting hurt by bits and pieces of metal flying around (I call it 'shrapnel') and - God forbid- potentially hitting your eyes.

Hence, I strongly recommend you to keep the focus on your work at all times, no shortcuts, and to use protective gear like gloves and (specially when cutting stuff) safety goggles. If a tough guy like me can use them, so can you, snowflake! ;)

Thanks for visiting, and be safe!!
