This is for those that aren't interested in going to my blog, I figured you might still want to see it...
In an effort to better organize my shop, and to put / keep my safety gear where it can be easily found / accessed by anyone in the house, I am mounting it all to the back side of the man door to the house.
I whipped up this simple little plywood dispenser that holds the box of Harbor Freight nitrile gloves.
The gloves I have been using are the Harbor Freight 5 mil nitrile gloves in X Large. I have a box of the Western Safety, and a box of the Hardy branded gloves. The only difference appears to be the graphics on the box...
The dispenser is open at the top, and I simply push / slide the box up and out, then the new box slides down and in... The opening is more than sufficient to fully access the dispenser slot.
Build time was less than 20 minutes including design time (does it show?), and materials used was yet more scrap plywood from my cutoffs pile...
If you haven't figured it out yet, I am making an aggressive attempt to eliminate the cutoffs pile as much as is possible.
While I was in there, I also moved up my safety glasses hanger bracket to free up space lower down the door so that I can store my respirators.
I am also considering a first aid eye wash station, however the kitchen sink is literally 8 feet from that door, I am not sure how an eye wash station would be any better... Opinions? Ideas where to get an eye wash thingy?
