After putting a post on earlier regarding Timber and your health,just thought i'd point out that in the the last edition of Woodturning,it features Dennis White,who recently celebrated his 100th birthday.
Dennis had been turning for 83 years,full time.
So i just wondered what sort of health and safety precautions would he have taken back then.He must have turned some interesting timbers in his time.Did any of them effect him and his health.
I used to know an 83 year old carpenter who used to say that they just put an handkerchief or some cloth round their mouths when doing dusty work,which i have also done in the past. :roll:
