Dear all

    When I am now to proceed to grind 27 gravers today, I've decided to
    use the following precaution...."Laytex surgical gloves". You know
    how long it takes for the steel fragments to get off of my fingers
    and lower arms? Many days is more like it! 

    As for the eyes..(MRI) testing of the "orbits" I and you all MUST
    use safety glasses that have a large facial coverage...The steel
    shots COULD bounce off of the upper face (under the eye-socket) and
    the "could" be history, if any of these do actually hit the retina. I
    know of my friendly jeweller, who constantly uses laytex gloves while
    polishing his rings...can you say 'clean' fingers? 

Gerry!
