G'day all,
I have recently purchased some old ammo crates from a salvage yard that would make nice tool or toy boxes if fixed up properly.
I think they were made by ADI, as they housed tank rounds, but I'm not too sure. Anyhoo, they are made from pine and I am concerned that perhaps they are made from treated pine. Is there anyway to tell?
If I am going to sand these back, I will obviously be wearing a face mask, but I am just wondering how dangerous the sawdust is. I don't have any dust extractor setup or anything like that.
I'm probably just being ultra paranoid, but I really don't want to make anyone sick.
Advice anyone...
Cheers,
antisense ^_^
