      reminds me of my current job - I'm a welder, and we use rags soaked in lacquer thinner to clean parts before welding them. lacquer thinner is extremely flammable and about once a month someone will leave their bottle and rag a little too close while they're mig welding and one will go up. Almost nothing else in the shop is flammable though so we just toss the burning rags onto the floor and wait for them to go out or stamp them out. If the bottle goes up, though, that's when the fire extinguisher becomes necessary.

    Don’t you just LOVE how your most anxious driven and maybe slightly physically challenging projects end up being your favorite? I’ve been working on a glitter painting for over a year now and it’s been incredibly challenging and obviously time consuming. I also had no clue how much mod podge I would need for it. I’ve spent close to $400 in materials (including the burden on my energy bill and replacing two hair dryers) and it’s been incredibly rewarding watching something I first drafted coming into form. I’m not done yet, I have a lot of down time waiting on layers to cure so that I can see what it actually looks like between layers, because as you work with mod podge it isn’t actually clear while painting…so there is a LOT of “trust the process” moments lol. I’m terrified of the final layer because then I have to decided if I’m going to use a final layer with resin or if I’m going to do a final 3cm mod podge layer. The board it’s on is already pushing 50lbs and I’m going to have to make a metal case for displaying since the foam board can’t be used to put hardware on just to mount as it is.
    Anyways, I just happened upon this in my recommendations and I’m really glad I watched it. Seeing someone else experience all the stages of grief with a project just encouraged me to hang in there.

      That's an exciting gig! I'm envious. As for making things being a man's domain...that's rubbish. It's an outdated and certainly invalid mode of thinking. I have a young daughter and much to her chagrin, I have her help me work on cars, help me in the woodwork shop and nearly anything else around that house that needs repairing. I figure one of my job as a parent is to impart as much practical knowledge as possible and if I do my job right, one day she won't need me anymore. It has nothing to do with gender and everything to do with being a self-sufficient adult...although I have gotten pretty good at doing braids.
