Health and Safety
Any particular health and safety details have been noted as I performed the tasks during the module.
Additionally,
- keep wires from electrical items away from main thoroughfares
- take a break and move around at least once an hour
- keep 'sharps', e.g. scissors, awls, bradawls, etc stored in a cork
- wear rubber gloves when using bleach and keep room well ventilated
- dispose of sharps considerately
- don't inhale metallic powder or other powders. Wear a mask if prone to irritation.
- take care when heating metal. Check that it has no plastic coating if recycling items, e.g. tomato paste tubes. Hold the metal with pliers, heat it outside for ventilation and have a metal tray handy on which to place it (see Chapter 7).
- always store art materials clearly marked and away from the kitchen/children/pets.
- using wax and wax pot - keep pot on work surface with flex out of way so don't pull pot over. Cover floor before you start, but should any wax get on floor clean off with scraper (credit card) and abrasive cleaner so don't slip. Cover ironing board with newspaper/kitchen roll and silicon paper - then another layer of silicon paper on top before ironing.
