[Lippyp]

I learnt my lesson a couple of years ago when I got a load of grit embedded in the surface of my eye doing some construction work on my mother-in-laws 400 year old stone cottage, had to get it dugout with a hypodermic needle by a nice eye doctor with very steady hands. Now I always wear eye protection and ear protection when grinding (although the damage may already be done, too many loud rock concerts when younger!). I am probably a little lax in the lung protection area (but don't spray paint yet) but when you wear glasses the damn things always seem to steam up with a mask on.
