Safety note: sediment bowls.

Posted by Dan in Ore on March 31, 2003 at 08:59:17 from (198.81.26.142):

How many times have you taken a screwdriver to scrape the varnish and whatever out of the bottom of a glass sediment bowl.

I've probably done it a hundred times without consequence until yesterday. I was scraping the bowl that goes on an F-12 that I just brought home Saturday and poked a phillips screwdriver through the bottom of the bowl and deep into my hand along with a good sized piece of glass.

I am sure that the glass was cracked, or it never would have broken, however the crack must have been hidden by the varnish that I was trying to scrape out.

This may never happen to anyone else, I consider it a freak accident, but just to make you aware. It may not be a bad idea to look for cracks before putting a sharp object in there. Also in the future, I will set the bowl on a benchtop or something other than my hand.
