HAVs and possible prevention.

This was the best subreddit I found where I feel I could get some answers, so if this isnt what you want posted here I apologize in advance. I use a sawzall and grinder a lot cutting and grinding metal. I've always noticed that even using hem ten minor so that my hands get weak, forearms swell turn red and itch, also I get shoulder fatigue. Best thing I could find that matched it was HAVs (Hand-Arm Vibration syndrome) once my benefits kick in at work I plan on talking to a doctor about it and some other issues. However I'm just curious if anyone has some solid advice to help against it. I try and take breaks often but as soon as I fire up the tools again it comes back. It's not a daily thing because it's not from work but from my hobbies. I'd prefer not to stop doing them but I also dont want to cause any serious damage to my body. Any advice is welcome and thank you in advance.

15 Small Kitchen Island Ideas That Inspire

Kitchen islands are the workhorses of a busy kitchen, but they also inevitably become a place where family and friends gather before and after mealtime.

How to adjust CTL track tension (VIDEO)

It’s one of the simpler maintenance chores you can do, but adjusting the tension on the tracks of your compact track loader is critically important. If your tracks get too loose, they may spool off the undercarriage and put you in a bind – replacing tracks in the field takes at least two people and often auxiliary equipment. If your tracks are too tight, they can damage the undercarriage and lead to premature wear. We teamed with Leland Garrison, service technician at Thompson Tractor in Birmingham, Alabama, for a quick lesson on the proper way to tension the tracks on a Cat CTL. Note that different brands of CTLs will have different ways to accomplish this task, so consult your owner’s manual or your dealer and follow their instructions for the brand of machine you have. And don’t miss our video of this guide below where Garrison takes you through each step of this process. 1.
