No Permenant injuries.... but recomendations from me would be:
when cutting, grinding, hammering, chizling... always wear safety glasses... preferably with a face shield too... yes - glasses and shield
Ear plugs or ear muffs
if grinding, a dust mask or mask with filters
if you are going to insist on breaking an environmental law - please note, I am discouraging this - but if you insist on cutting 'charged' freon lines in a/c units and fridges.... wear safety glasses and resperator, do not look at lines when cutting... and cut and run............. please don't cut the line tho... besides being very bad for environment and against the law.... freon both old and new kinds can instantly damage your body.... the owner of the scrap yard said one of his customers went blind in one eye because he got sprayed directly in the face and froze his eye instantly... one of the yard guys told me that another of their customers had a lung frozen... could die instantly... on the low end, you could get frostbite...
Wearing steel toed boots, long sleaves, thick pants such as carharts or ****ies.....
I have had the odd thing in my eye, small cuts, slivers, etc..... but nothing serious to take me out of the game.... and take care of your back too... only got one
Sorry for rambling... i am definitly not a safety freak. lol
