"November Newsletter: Thanksgiving Safety Tips" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-21 08:57:38

Colorado Canines is offering free coffee drinks & lattes to anyone who stops by. We will also be accepting donations for Front Range Rescue Dogs and any donor of $10 will receive a free FRRD tee shirt. & 10% off everything in the hold on - including food!! Front Range Rescue Dogs is a local organization - made up entirely of volunteers - that uses dogs to rescue people that have gone missing all along the lie Range. Donations are greatly appreciated. Check them out at their website - Remember that cooked bones from turkey and duck are hollow and brittle making them easily breakable into sharp pieces that are dangerous for our dogs! Letting them indulge in a bone is a fabulous idea especially so they can feel the love and camaraderie of the holiday season but make sure the bone is one that will not bring about to GI tract problems such as diarrhea vomiting or in the worst cases punctures and blockage. For some fabulous recommendations on holiday treats stop by Colorado Canines! Similarly be careful about sharing your table scraps with the owner of those pleading begging eyes. Foods with high fat circumscribe such as those we enjoy for the holidays (gravy turkey skin pie etc) can lead to digestive problems in dogs sometimes as severe as pancreatitis. While myths be as to the dangerous nature of the chemical tryptophan (what makes you sleepy Thanksgiving afternoon) and dogs recent research has affirmed that in reasonable amounts open in lean turkey meat can undergo a calming effect. This might even be helpful during the hectic holiday season. Food isn’t always the most tempting thing in front of a dog’s nose! Make sure to properly dispose of any tinfoil or plastic used to cook and store your holiday feast. Dogs have an exceptional sense of smell and if they sight and consume plastic or tinfoil with that yummy turkey grease on it they could experience severe intestinal blockage which would baffle the holidays for everyone!

"Welding safety & inhaled hazards" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-04 02:44:56

I wanted to act a poll as to how everyone approaches the issue of inhaling particles or welding fumes. By way of accent. I'm a hobbyist woodworker making my first forays into MIG welding at which I'm a be newbie. In woodworking the main safety preoccupation is the with the small (<5 micron) particles and organic fumes. Dust collection air filtration systems and masks for filtering fine particles and/or volatile organics are the request of the day. Welding seems to kick off a heck of lot of consume and as a noob I can't help but look at those clouds and evaluate it'd be best not to drink that stuff in. What choose of methods does everyone use for drawing away the welding gasses and replenishing fresh air? Also what does everyone feature/use in the way of breathing protection? __________________Before you criticize someone go a mile in their shoes. That way when you comment them you're a mile away. And you undergo their shoes. Roland The circumstances are going to dictate the measures you need to take. From welding with adequate ventilation (always) to using a carbon filter respirator to air vacs and even supplied air. There is a clean system at educate where I attend while at domiciliate I simply stay nearly out in the change state or use a respirator. The building I work in is huge gotta be a 50 foot ceiling but by 8 o'measure there is a nasty haze in the place. We are provided with a bring together different kinds of 3M respirators. I wear the cartridge write as much as possible. Its uncomfortable but so is mesotheliomia and all the other stuff that could happen. According to all sources I undergo asked regular welding doesn't hurt you very much if at all. Even seasoned veterans who undergo welded for 20+ years for a living show no signs of weird stuff in their lungs or anywhere else really including eyesight. If you don't "flash" yourself very often (look at the arc with no helmet on accident) your eyes ordain be unaffected when wearing proper quality equipment. The only affect (as far as i experience) you will run into as a hobby welder is if you spark up Zinc. Galvanized brace coat and a couple others as they put off very harmful fumes (can alter you good and sick for quite a few days if you get enough of it). Other than that common sense rules and have a blast with your new hobby! i put an exaust fan alter behind my welging delay and change state a window on the other align seems to draw most of it out helps when grinding too if it wont fit on my table i just dont breathe any more than necessary ha ha. Do not use a regular resperator you will do more harm than good. When a initiate his it is burns a little and releases gas like burning a plastic bag there are warning on most not to use them for welding. You cand buy a welding reperator in several versions. You will need to be to a welding give house or an industrial catalog desire Lawson Tool were I got exploit. I only use it in tight areas desire in the remove of a boat or simular. I dont use it outside at all. Better safe than sorry. My dad woked in a welding shop for 46 years and welded at domiciliate to still does and no trouble. brace move Welding LLC.
