Hi All,

I just came in from the shop to cool off. (My main shop is better known as saw horses and planks on the concrete slab.) It is on the south side of the brick 1st floor. We have full sun today and both weather sites are showing it at 108.

Carpentry again, on my day off, working on rebuilding a deck. One hour is enough at a time, and then I have been taking at least an hour break. Right now I am about finished rebuilding the frame.

However, right now I am drinking a Gator aid in front of a fan, and am contemplating a nap. Our company has safety training on working in the heat. For me I consider the rest/work times given as a minimum, because I normally work inside. Right now it is break time.

Good advise: Drink plenty of water and take frequent breaks to cool down.

Regards,

Stew
