"The vapors alone are bad enough... don't kid yourself "

I'm not really sure how to define "bad", but I've been using the stuff since it came out in the mid/late ??? 50's. I am now 80 years old, and had suffered no ill effects that can be traced back to that, only to my 40 or so years of smoking.

I'v been building airplanes for more years than I choose to count. Now that the gray hair is here I'm noticing an increased sensitivity to the fumes from the glues. For safety sake I always have a fan lightly blowing across the build table to keep the fumes away. When working with epoxy I wear gloves now. I hadn't slowed down with my building, but I use the extra care with handling the glue hazards so that I can continue to enjoy the hobby/sport...
