Using a miter saw while wearing gloves
The difference is fairly simple... It's a matter of keeping the gloves
off when they might get caught in a blade or in machinery. Yes, should wear gloves for handling hazardous materials when there is no risk of having yourself pulled into a machine. Baron wrote in : John Doe prodded the keyboard http://www.lowes.com/pl_Cordless+Dri...rd_lis_ord_nbr 0||p_product_quantity_sold|1 Hover your mouse over "Ideas & How-tos". Lowe's online hardware store shows a guy using a miter saw while wearing gloves. Wouldn't it be better to have a cut finger than to have your hand pulled into the blade? A lot of industrial workers are required to wear protective gloves nowadays ! These are usually the anti cut through types that have a fine chain mail type mesh incorporated into the fabric. I have a pair, not that I use them for protection from a rotating saw blade, but they do protect you from cuts from knives, chisels and screwdriver slips. They are great for handling glass where you can get very serious damage from the razor sharp edges though. |
