Safety, Stone, Techniques, Tips for Beginners
All the stones sold from 2sculpt are safe to carve. That means no asbestos, arsenic, radioactivity, or trans-fats. Still, you should always wear personal protective equipment (PPE), namely a paper mask and safety glasses.
If you are using power tools and therefore creating a lot of dust you need ear protection and should have on a respirator.
Whereas a paper mask catches about 40% of the dust, a double respirator labeled as P100 will provide about 99% protection. Gel bicycle gloves without the fingers are my favorite for vibration.
