Survival of the fittest

I am a pretty big apostate when it comes to Material Safety and Data Sheets, I kinda pay attention to them, but I pretty much work with materials that I am comfortable with and try not to get too much stuff on my skin. (ok I am actually a disaster in this respect at times, please liver, forgive me) BUT that said, everyone should read the MSDS that come with the materials that they are using. BUT don’t stop there! The internet is great resource for information about all sorts of crazy ass projects, and how NOT to kill yourself doing them. Don’t just check out one website, check 10! That can give you a pretty good idea what to expect. Like today I read all about life casting and how skin safe silicon sticks to hair! Fancy that. And it took me all of 3 minutes to find that out. But anyway… people…all people… wear your bike helmets and read your safety info and follow the directions. AND ALWAYS CROSS CHECK (no not cross-dress) your directions just might be a bad translation from Chinese or something.

Hey and a great place for getting instructions on making stuff is at Instructables.com, but once again don’t try something you read there as gospel, do a little more research before you make yourself a high voltage cat fence or whatever.

I heart instructables.
