    guess they would rather breath well then see well? i use safety goggles since the glasses do allow some particles to float around the openings…also can get some masks for auto body work fairly cheap at parts stores or even the dollar stores in this area…cheap vinly or latex disposable gloves and a rag also help to keep your hands and working surface free from glass dust

    not really with any type of corded hand engraver it states to keep out of water to prevent electricution….but there are paste types that can be painted on after the design negative is in place that require rinsing afterwards…toxic to touch before rinsed but not glass particles in air

    Engraving stores put glass objects under running water while etching to prevent the glass particles from going air born. Does this work with the hand engraver?

    My husband and I brew our own beer too, for a year now. Store beer doesn’t match the awesomeness of your own beer and it is super easy to do. It really is a cheap hobby, how much you put into it is up to you. We payed for a starter kit to get started and that was the most expensive bit, I could have got the instructions online for free and recycled tubs to brew in for nothing. If you want simple; buy the syrup pre made…. or if you want finess go all out and make the wort yourself. Try it!
