Hey y'all, just a friendly reminder… always wear safety glasses when using a wire wheel on a angle grinder. I had a wire fly off today and hit my cheek. Lucky it wasn’t my eye! PPE saves pain.

Good point Pete. I learned that the hard way too. Now I just buy those cheap 3M safety glasses in bulk. No excuse not to wear em when they’re like 50 cents a pair.

Heck yeah! I also got a face shield for grinding. Worth every penny. Anyone have recs for anti-fog ones? Mine always fog up when I'm sweating.

Will, I use the anti-fog wipes on my regular glasses. Works OK. Or you can get a mesh shield, more airflow. Stay safe guys!

I just take a deep breath and wipe em with my shirt lol. But seriously, better foggy than blind.
