Hey, just a reminder to always wear safety glasses when using a rotary tool. I was cutting a tile yesterday and a piece flew right at my face. Lucky I had them on.

Good tip. I'd add a dust mask too, especially if you're grinding or sanding. That fine dust gets everywhere.

Truth. I learned that the hard way restoring an old table. Had to stop for a week cuz my eyes were irritated. Now I use a full face shield.

@LevelLarry438, a face shield is overkill for most stuff imo, but to each their own. I like just glasses and a respirator for anything heavy.

Better overkill than sorry. I've seen too many guys get hurt. Also, check your bits before use. A cracked bit can explode.
