RE: [BlindHandyMan] gloves
If I have to pick up dead or dying animals my cat has met, or dog turds, I use a plastic bag over my hand. And, if it's below zero and windy outside I might ware a pair of work gloves, but generally, I don't like having my hands covered at all. -Original Message- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:blindhandy...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Jennifer Jackson Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2010 08:54 To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: [BlindHandyMan] gloves Hey Guys, What kind of gloves do you all use for hand protection?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] gloves
Aloha Jennifer, As someone else mentioned, it depends on what I'm trying to protect myself from, but I did buy a box of 100 non-latex gloves at my local drugstore for things like dealing with messy stuff. I also have some that are for using harsh chemicals. I think the regular gloves from the drugstore were $7 for the box. I'm also a fan of plastic bags for cleaning cat boxes and the like. They give you plenty of room to stretch your fingers. I have a funny little thing that is actually a potholder that is worn only on the thumb. I like it for protecting my thumb when using a hammer.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] gloves
Interesting question. As someone else said what are we protecting them from? I use the flimsy latex when staining, furniture stripping and installing fiberglass insulation. Sometimes if digging a hole or similar repetitive operations I may put on a pair of leather gloves. Lined if it is cool. Sometimes I wear a pair of dry leather gloves when handling live electric circuits. If it is just plain cold I like lined leather. But honestly I don't wear gloves very often that is why my hands are beat to death from hammer hits and knife cuts. Usually rinse my hands with rubbing alcohol after I wash with soap and water so hardly ever get infections.
