• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Sanding Glove

Not a chance. Especially with velcro wrist closure. Only need to catch a thread and you are suddenly part of the machine. Not currently available anyway.

Oddly enough I would be a natural market as I am allergic to wood tar - exacerbates eczema. I have in the past used thin cotton medical gloves for some wood tasks. But not turning as in another place I was rightly advised against it.

I reckon it could be useful for arthritic hands or if you would like to keep your fingerprints. It also has a big warning not to use on spinny things
 
Agree, definitely NO gloves near the lathe.
I would pull an old sock over the hand and if it caught was just pulled straight off. Happened a couple of times.
I do have a pair of thin pig skin gloves which I use when handling large bits of timber.
Otherwise nothing and deal with the splinters later on.
