Re: Baldwin Restoration

If we could see ahead of time how we were going to get hurt we could take steps to prevent that specific accident, but do we?? I have hear the
heavy material line of reasoning but I have also
seen toes saved when hit with pretty heavy stuff
I have also seen where the steel toe didn't make any difference, like coming around the end of a car just in time to stick his toes under the wheel of a heavily loaded solid tire lift truck. Steel toe or no steel toe, the guy's toes were gone.
But everything that hits our toes is not that heavy. I had one instance where a guy dropped
an angle corner post. It slapped my toe hard enough that I had litle blood blisters where
they hit the inside of the steel toe. I'm sure it would have been much worse had I not been wearing them.
Working at remodeling our house I always wore them and a couple of times they kept me from having bruised toes. I wouldn't work around a shop without them. Are they required at the D&S and C&TS ??
