Protection is very important.

It's true. You know it... But I'm talking about eye protection here.

I use a Dremel. Actually, I just started using my Dremel. I don't know where my brain was, but I just sort of forgot about it... I'm a bit of a ditz. I can admit that, ok.

Here is my advice as a novice Dremel operator- Wear goggles.

Tiny shards of metal flying at your face at a high velocity is not fun. I have no flesh wounds and I have both my eyes. I almost lost one though.

Some day I'll post a photo of me in my sexy goggles. For now, you'll just have to try to picture me with a big weird shield of plastic over my eyes.
