I forgot the cloth dot gloves

The armoured gloves were actually pretty nice except for dexterity issues at times.


I gave slumlord a pair long ago.
Cross between some storm trooper and moto cross stuff is the best way I can describe em

Handling cutting tools after casing cutting to direction drill and mag tools to clean out all the metal after pulling out of the hole
Those gloves were worth their weight in gold handling those tools.

I cant imagine using light cloth gloves or even regular leather ones to keep from getting metal splinters in your hands.
Even with the armoured gloves splinters would eventually work thru.
Toss em at end of shift they was so embedded with metal shavings.
Saved alot of cuts from slings also.
