Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

HA ha ha ha ha sakit na tyan ko sa katatawa sa mga replies nyo guys.

Heto naman aking pang bato,

ELECTRIC IRON [ pang plantsa ] eats up lots of electricity and yet tahimik sya kapag ginagamit.

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

And where do you use plantsa in woodworking?

Ahh...maybe to flatten some wrinkled wood?

Panalo! :p

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

Ah hindi, yan ay pang plantsa ng felt cloth or felt paper pang lining sa loob ng jewelry box or sa bandsaw box. he he he hey!!!! :p

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

must be electrical... 😀

Digital caliper very much electrical! Contains a crowning achievement of electrical engineering of the last century, namely, an integrated [electric] circuit. Powered electrically (i.e., by electric current or flow of electrons) from a battery.

Doesn't contain an electric motor, but the criterion was generic ('electrically operated') not specifically motorized. 🙂

If there will be a clarification that it must be motorized or cut/shape wood directly, my wild guess is ... electric cordless drill/screwdriver.

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

akala ko nagkakamali ako ng binabasang thread.

Workshop Safety Work Wears pa rin pala ito 😀

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

natatawa talaga ako sa mga replies nyo...

pwede ba magpa raffle na lang ako ng 2 set ng progressor blades sa next eb? kulang kasi criteria ko pala.soweee!

Electronic is under the electrical umbrella, which is basically electricity controlled by electricity . Strictly speaking, electronics is the branch of electrical science wherein you control the flow of the electrons thus the title electronics.

So the digital caliper (digital gauge as well :D) is still under the electrical criteria :p

yup, but a charger is a powertool tool... not for woodworking... 😉

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

raffle na lang pala, akala ko ako na nanalo... 😀 payag na nga ako... pero mahirap talunin yung soldering iron... hahahaha

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

Going back to the topic...

Thought I'd post a photo of my favorite workboots: Timberland.

Also, I got those knee pads from one of those shops that sell paintball gear. They really protect your knees. Feels like kneeling on a cushion every time.

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

Got these yesterday and put them to use immediately. Best gloves I ever used. Well, I don't have much to compare on. Been using the locally available loose leather gloves which keep getting sawdust inside. These ones are comfortable and maintains agility of my fingers.

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

Do you know of eye protection gear that could be worn on top of eyeglasses? ... So are there eye protection gear that can fit glasses inside?

The operative term is 'over the glasses' (OTG). Some examples of OTG:

Of the non-goggles, I prefer the four ones on the left column, which are all Sperian/Pulsafe/Bacou-Dalloz VisiOTG-A, P132 before discount. The two other non-goggles (both brand name) on right column have a bar on top which can be seen in your peripheral vision, and which I find undesirable. As for the goggles, I find that they can also be comfortably worn over glasses.

These are all from Top-Rigid in QC. You can pick up a catalog of all their safety equipment. Their catalog classifies all their eye protection according to features, such as OTG. Ask for 10% discount.

Directions: On West 4th St. north of Times St. No sign, looks like residence, just past subdivision guardhouse, on left.

Top-Rigid previously mentioned here:

Hearing Protection

While quality of these brand name ones seem to be a cut above what the hardware stores are selling, the polycarbonate that they use still seems to scratch easily. Even just cleaning/wiping them causes minute scratches. After a while of usage, you can easily tell a used one vs. a brand new one. I don't think polycarbonate eyeglasses scratch as easily. Does polycarbonate come in different grades, and eye protection uses a lower grade than eyeglasses?

Anyone compared scratch resistance of polycarbonate eye protection, locally obtained vs. US obtained ... or recent generation vs. 10+ years ago?

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

Great information sir guad, now we know where to get good quality eye protections locally.

I too have all those eye protections but only purchased them at DIY stores or mall hardwares.

Re: Workshop Safety Work Wears

As I have read, polycarbonate are mainly used in safety eye protection due to it's high impact resistance over acrylic. However, it is also more likely to be scratch on the downside.
