theory, static can ignite fuel vapors or gases, but wood dust?


Wood dust in the right proportions can be explosive. You can probably
find
more information on it in the rec archives, but I'm sure quite a few
people
will respond with additional information.



I'd like to see that one on myth busters.

No one says it can't happen in an industrial situation. To my knowledge, no
one has ever documented a case of a dust explosion in a home workshop. If
there is such documentation, I'm open to seeing it, but AFAIK, it has never
been produced here when this topic has surfaced.
