Woodworking displays great craftsmanship and overall intention and can be done for work or as a personal hobby. It can also be a great way to get away from the digital aspects of things and cultivate mindfulness as you create great pieces with your hands.

But whether you’ve just started woodworking or have been in the craft for many years, it’s important to stay protected with the proper eyewear. 

Why?

Because failing to do so could result in negative consequences–we’ll talk about that in this article. 

Also, to avoid those circumstances, we’ll be discussing several safety glasses you can wear during your professional or personal practice that can benefit your overall safety.

So let’s get into it–keep scrolling to learn more about the importance of safety glasses and woodwork. 

Why you should wear safety glasses when woodworking 

Safety glasses may be like a last minute thought, but they should always be one of your first priorities when it comes to woodworking.

For one, you may be working with power or sharps tools like drills and saws and can easily have a mishap. When wearing safety glasses, especially those of great durability, they can protect your eyes in case any of these tools, or pieces thereof, get too close to your eyes.

Not only that, but there are also other things you should look out for. This includes things like  sawdust, small chunks of wood, or particles that can cause irritation or even damage the eye. 

So while you may think you could go without safety glasses, you would benefit greatly from wearing them while carrying out your tasks, whether great or small.

If they seem like just another expense, don’t worry. We’ll get into affordable options that are durable and safe for any work or personal environment.
