The National Toxicology Program's Tenth Report on Carcinogens (67 FR 77283) was recently issued. One change of interest to this group it that wood dust is now listed as a known human carcinogen.

I guess it is possible to get to much of a good thing.

Wow' date=' I guess its been upgraded then. I may have to re-do our Dust Control in the Shop FAQ. I wonder if the old furnace filter in front of a 20" box fan is still a good option?

But so is coffee and bacon....

It is a heady thought really, wood dust, coffee percing and bacon on the stove along with fresh bread with butter (causing heart disease). All set in a wooden boat shed down on the water with the mist etc etc etc

sigh
