Safety Glasses

Note the important protective side shields.

Flip-down Magnifiers

Flip-down magnifier with two integral lights.

Multiple magnifying lenses.
The inner element is hinged & spring-loaded.

Shields

Small, low, 1/16" thick, polycarbonate chip shield.
The aluminum base has five glued-in magnets.

When re-clamping parts between machining
operations it is essential to remove swarf.
Otherwise, accuracy can be affected & debris
pressed into the part may cause damage.

Leather Gloves

Anti-fatigue Mats

Anti-fatigue matting can really help with
long-term standing comfort & reduce injury.
These mats are 9/16" thick closed-cell foam with a
PVC anti-slip surface & non-tripping beveled edges.
Swarf does not embed into the smooth hard PVC surface,
like it would with soft matting, making clean-up easy.

Outlets

20A 110VAC grounded outlets provide safe, adequate
power for my equipment. The outlet circuits use
separate breakers from the overhead lights so they do
not flicker when various shop machines are turned ON.

Shop Vacuum

Good for removing swarf, this particular model has an
effective exhaust muffler. A clean shop is a safer shop.

Macie the Golden Retriever

Besides, I don't want Macie, my
Golden Retriever, to get into any swarf.
This is at sunrise in winter. She's my big girl
being 24" at the withers & weighing 80 lb
