Monday after work I slabbed a 3X3X12 block of cocobolo. The first half I didn't use my respirator, mask, or anything. Got quite dusty so I put on all my regalia for the second half of the block.
This picture was taken about 3:30 this morning shortly before LOML took me to the ER for some good meds. I took 50 mgm benadryl last nite at 7:30, then 50 mgm more at 11:30. Woke up at three with this glorius mug. Actually the swelling has gone down somewhat since then, but still pretty bad.
Two hundred and seventy dollars does not, now, seem all that much for a triton respirator system. Gonna order that real quick.
