clothing for woodturning

<< < (2/2)

this is why hoovers are ideal tools in the workshop lol. I know the many times I am in and out of the workshop. about 90% of the time I'm covered in wood chippings and dusts, so when I finish for the day, the workshop vac is on and I'm hoovering myself down to get the worst off.

I like the sound of the smocks. something worth me considering. I pretty much just have my usual work clothes on and don't really mind being covered in the stuff unless it's fine dust from sanding work, etc.

One of my collection of turning smocks was rather thin and had those awful knitted cuffs that scratch and irritate as soon as a shaving goes near. This hated garment was permanently relegated to a distant hook, unwanted and unloved, until one of those 'Ureka' moments struck as I watched a Canadian turner at one of the National Seminars..... He was wearing a short sleeved smock, why the hell didn't I think of that???? I now have separate winter and summer smocks, How cool is that? ;D
