In the thread on the shop carpet the issue of fire from coolant mist

framed garage, what other not obvious sources of fire have some of you
seen?



Someone flipping a butt into a trashcan full

Don't ask.



While on that subject, can some olde-timer tell me something about oily
rags and spontaneous combustion?
