you can never be too careful with plastic you can burn yourself in about 2 seconds the above picture should say to you guys be extra careful I have for myself many times but not that bad I've had the problem of people wanting to watch me shoot plastic I do not want people even in the shop around me when we are working we usually shut the door and if somebody drops by I will stop immediately what I'm doing in this should be a warning sign for every guy that shoots plastic baits please do not let people watch you were stand by you when you are working make sure that you wear plenty of protective clothing gloves are a must and longsleeved shirts and by all means your shoes do not wear tennis shoes try to wear something leather that will cover your feet you should wear some type of eye protection if you wear glasses you should be okay the only problem with this if you get a block to go on your four head to run down it may go into your eyes so I suggest get a pair of good work glasses the type that come up tight against your eyes remember it only takes 2 seconds for something to happen like I mentioned in the above so please do all you can to be protected of yourself and others.
