Howdy all,

Curious about the materials that most of us are exposed to on a regular
basis. Is there a single source (website, text, etc.) that describes (or
debunks) the health risks involved in long-term exposure to said materials,
or am I doomed to spend the rest of my days collecting MSDS's from
manufacturers around the globe?

Thanks for your time.

Lurking in KY,
Tom

You don't read the MSDS when you cross the street or fill gas to your car
just be aware wear gloves when needed and a respirator even when you think
it might not needed

I have setup a page with a few links that includes material safety; it may
be what you are looking
for. http://www.milkywayceramics.com/toolbox/material.htm
