Most workshop injuries happen during quick jobs when people skip the basics. Always wear safety glasses when drilling, cutting or grinding, and use hearing protection with loud tools such as angle grinders and circular saws. A dust mask is essential when sanding or cutting materials that create fine dust.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6502b44 elementor-widget elementor-widget-wd_image_or_svg\" data-id=\"6502b44\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"wd_image_or_svg.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"wd-image text-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/live.allanuxweb.com\/hardware-store\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/wd-blog-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ad255b elementor-widget elementor-widget-wd_text_block\" data-id=\"1ad255b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;highlighted_vertical_offset&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;highlighted_vertical_offset_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;highlighted_vertical_offset_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"wd_text_block.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wd-text-block reset-last-child text-left\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p>Keep your work area tidy and well lit, and clamp workpieces securely instead of holding them by hand.
