Hand and Power Tool Safety - The Never List

Hand and power tools are integral to the efficiency of our workplaces but they are also extremely dangerous and account for hundreds of thousands of injuries every year. Safe use of these tools is imperative for a healthy and productive workplace. Here is a list of things never to do with a hand or power tool.

Never start work without scanning your work area for possible hazards. Make sure that the cord won't get caught on any materials and that the work area is clean. A clean and organized work area is the first step to efficiency and safety.

Never work without personal protective equipment. Goggles, gloves and other PPE save many eyes and hands every year. Never work without them!

Never forget to secure the materials you are working on especially with power tools. Kick-back is when a power tool sends its energy away from cutting or punching and either violently into the material or back towards the tool. Either way it can cause serious injury.

Never use a power tool with one hand. Kick-back and slipping will occur eventually and could cause serious injury.

Never use a hammer or screwdriver without first "seating" the nail or screw. Tap the nail or screw in with a hammer and get your hand away from the nail or screw. Never use full force with your hand still in the area.

Never use a screwdriver that has a blade that is too big or small for the job. Always fit the blade to the screw. It will decrease your chances for injury exponentially.

Never use a hammer to turn a wrench or pliers. Inevitably the hammer will bounce off and hit you or someone else.

Never forget to sharpen your blades. Hand knives and power saws are safer when they are sharp. It reduces kick-back and makes every operation go smoother.

Hand and Power tool injuries are all too common in the workplace, but with a little safety and planning they can be avoided. These are just a few things never to do. Get as much training as possible and add other rules to this list. You may avoid a serious injury some day.

CAS Hanwei Practical Blade, Hand-and-a-Half Sword $159 The Practical Hand-and-a Half sword is based on the Albrecht sword, a classic design from the early part of the 15th century, with a simple cruciform hilt, flattened diamond-section blade and typical hand-and-a-half grip. With a weight of just 3 lbs. It handles very well without tiring the player during a long day in the field. The Practical broadswords are all based on authentically styled swords in our collection but they are tailored to meet the needs of re-enactment and stage combat. These very popular and affordable weapons feature authentic hilt styling, with fully tempered un-edged and un-pointed blades. They are designed to withstand rugged use while providing the level of safety required by many of today s re-enactment societies. The blades are crafted from 1065 high-carbon steel, hardened to 50HRC, which restricts edge-notching to acceptable levels while providing resilience and protection against brittleness. While the blades are substantial, they are fullered to provide balance and good handling characteristics. They feature 1/16 wide edges and rounded tips for safety. The tangs are also substantial, with radiused corners at the blade shoulders and no welds. The end of the tang is riveted over the pommel, which both eliminates any possibility of inadvertent disassembly and provides a traditional means of tightening a loose hilt. The hardwood grips are leather-covered. The scabbards are fabricated in glass-filled resin, to provide great impact resistance, to eliminate swelling and to minimize blade corrosion problems. The scabbards now feature belt rings that adjust to allow vertical or horizontal carry. The wood-grain finish is attractive, but most re-enactors will decorate the scabbard to match their persona. Features: - Wooden scabbard - Fullered blade Specifications: - Overall length: 43 3/4 inch - Blade length: 34 inch - Handle length: 6 1/4 inch - Weight: 3lb 3oz - Point of Balance: 3 1/2 inch - Point of Percussion: 23 inch - Width at Guard: 1. 75 inch - Width at Tip: 61 inch - Thickness at Guard: 21 inch - Thickness at Tip: 19 inch
