[Woodcarver] toxicity chart...

[sally nye]

Hi Glenda,

Sorry, my schedule doesn't allow me to get online everyday.  Other 
commitments are more pressing...like Fan Carver's World :)

Thanks to you, John, Joe, Clive and Tom for responding to my quest.  
Glenda, I think John sent the chart that you had posted at an earlier 
date.  If you have something other than that one, yes, I would be 
interested in seeing it. Please send to me off-list.

I think this issue (toxicity) has taken care of itself pretty much.  
Our new little woodcarving club (9 months along) has 18 members now.  
We meet in a school classroom with no charge to us.  The topic has 
arose a few times about allowing power carving in that setting.  I was 
detering it for various reasons...dust, allergic reaction, noise 
pollution, etc.  So I armed myself with valid information and presented 
it to the club for discussion.  I think it has taken care of itself.  
We want to be able to socialize, we do not want to wear masks, we do 
not want to be disrespectful to our most gracious host allowing us to 
meet for "free."  etc, etc.

Thanks to all who helped me out on this issue.  Now I have to make 
copies of the toxicity charts because everyone would like to have one.  
That's a good thing!  We need to educate ourselves especially because 
we are such a new club and some of our members had "no" clue of the 
dangers of wood dust.

Thanks to everyone for your help.
Sally
