    Been grinding shit 12 years now without safety specs and never once had anything go near my face.

    It makes you acutely aware of exactly the angles and your positioning, unlike double eye protection and a leather vest and going balls out nofucks with chunks of shit smashing into your visor.

    PPE is last line of defence when everything else has failed remember, it's unimportant if you inherently manage the risk in other ways.

      It costs nothing and zero effort to put on a set of safety glasses.
      No negatives, lots of benefits.
      I do agree though that they shouldn't be used to cover poor practices when using such grinding/whatever equipment.

          From an engineering perspective I agree, but if you are cutting things with a grinder you have skipped most of the design, elimination and substitution steps.

          good episode, moog's outfit was set off nicely by the single fishnet stocking

                Yep I also wear thongs in the garage as I deem it to be an acceptable risk. I can stand a bit of damage to my feet and still function quite well.
                I can't stand any damage to my eyes and live a normal life with the things I do.
                It's up to you, it's your life, but like I say to wear safety glasses because there's no negatives and only benefits from doing so.

                        So you naturally look like that? Jesus. I always thought it was the result of a rouge 9" grinder and some upside down arc-welding disaster.

                            I didn't intend to start a fry up in this awesome thread, but that's the most retarted statement from someone who would have sat through a shit load of inductions.
