    A big "CONGRATULATION'S!!!!! too you Toni and to your Hubby l would think you could woodturn thru the early stages you should already have a mask. Maybe you could get a jetmini lathe and sit down too turn your pens during later stages but then again its more money that you might need for your new baby l hope every think goes well for you Toni for now and the future .f

    Hello Toni, congratulations on the perfect excuse to get all those little extras like aircon, dust extractors, tools, pen kits and pen kits and more pen kits, at night instead of sending hubby to the fridge for choclate, send him to the shed for different pen kits, and if they are not there, send him to town to order them!!!!

    Well done

    But it's probably a good idea to give CA finishes a miss for a while... they can be nasty at the best of times and there's no sense in taking risks. AFAIK, Shellawax and EEE are safe enough, I believe they're food-safe but I don't know that I want to put it to the test by eating any...
    Ripper Skew. I tell hubby I have to stop..


    No thanks guys for all the kind word. The shock is subsiding a bit and excitement is sneaking in now. You kind don't expect it after a vasectomy
    thanks everyone

    Yeah, it's one of those things where you don't know whether to offer congratulations or commiserations.

    What'd the young 'uns say when you told 'em? Gonna buy the new 'un a toy lathe to teethe on?

    Belated congratulations Toni and hubby.

    Many years ago my wife and I did not find out she was carrying twins until 7 1/2 months - despite our questioning the first doctor - but medical science has progressed since then. So I have some feeling for the shock that you recently experienced.

    Congrats Toni.

    As one whose job it is to look after women in your position I have never had anyone ask me if wood turning is potentially harmful during pregnancy, but I can't see any problem as long as you don't get hit by anything flying off a lathe at high speed. Common sense must prevail. A more common question is "Can I get my hair permed in pregnancy?"
    I actually looked that one up and it is deemed safe. If those nasty chemicals are OK then I don't think anything you are likely to use will be a problem.
    As for the vasectomy, the stats say the failure rate is ~1:1000.

    Best wishes.

    Hay tony,

    Hubby can now say he is really one in a thousand
    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    Congratulations, Toni!!!!
    As was mentioned, you need good breathing protection! If it was Bunny, I would not allow CA glue in the shed at all, at least during the pregnancy.
