Be Careful, Safe and Healthy!

D I Y can be very rewarding but please think about what and how you do it.
Do not breath Epoxy, vinyl, poly esters, acetone, paint ect...Wear a good high quality chemical mask and try to work in a well ventilated area.
Use latex, vinyl, rubber gloves, disposable if so be it as to not have to clean your hands with acetone which is absorbed into your system.
Wear Safety glasses before you get any shit in your eyes.
A full body tyvek suit, gloves rubber banded at wrists tucked inside, fine partical well fitting dust mask for all grinding, filing, sanding, drilling, so you can sleep itchless!
When heat curing be ever so careful about FIRE!! :angryfire:
Sorry sound like a Mom or Dad, but sure sucks to do permanent damage to your health possibly cutting short your foil flying years.
Be safe out there but know the stuff we build with is just plain dangerous if mishandled, PERIOD!
Read the warnings! :thumb:
