This safety tip came from Dave Tulowitzky of the SW Florida Trail Birds
Protect your arms
When our son was here visiting, I complained to him about my arms bruising so easily now because of medication I am on (not because I’m getting older). He suggested that I go to Harbor Freight and buy leather welding sleeves to wear when I am cutting pepper trees or working on my T'Bird, etc. I found some for $6.99 and bought a pair. They really work and have saved my arms from many embarrassing bruises and scratches.
I also purchased a pair that had gloves attached, but the sleeves work just fine for me.
