Go ahead, they're probably tired of me posting it anyway LOL !
That is a huge benefit of this site, learning tips on how to be safe, especially if its something you did not know before. Its also reminder, to have that mindset, raising awareness.
Glad I did post it, now thinking you guys recently got a welder. Anytime one is new to something, seems there's more of a chance of getting hurt. It was always true on large construction sites, someone new on site, you always watch out for that person.
A simple thing to remember with a welder and say a cutting torch, be extremely cautious around anything that is or could be a pressure vessel, so like in the video a wheel and tire is just that.
I'll admit I've certainly learned about a few things from others here and I'm better/safer for it today!!!! Huge benefit of this site, sharing of safety information.
Things like wheels and tires or how about batteries, with sulfuric gas/explosions when the vent/caps are clogged and its overcharged or an internal buss-bar arc's. Acetylene is unstable over 15 PSI,(cutting torch, how a R.O.P.S system works, seat with a seat belt and an engineered roll over protection structure, you have to click that belt in place, if not the system is negated and its likely you'll get injured. Hearing and eye protection, fall protection. How about split rims, now there's another extremely dangerous assembly to deal with.
Its probably too risky for a site like this to have a safety section, given the litigious society we live in, but simple things like the above, if they could be indemnified from any liability, just getting the word out, may just save an unsuspecting person from, injury or worse.
