Just wanted to let you guys know that if you use Teak for any projects, to be sure you wear dust/skin protection. Lotsa folks are allergic to the oils in it. For example, whenever anyone sands or cuts teak in the shop at work, I know about it cuz I get nose bleeds every time. And Ive also been told that when teak is shipped, its supposed to have an MSDS sheet with it, although Ive never seen one on teak.
I like the idea of a seperate forum for safety and health. Hope everyone chips in with their tips.:icon_thum

Chris, thanks much for the advice. I'm about to plane and rip some teak, and your info is quite timely.
