Topic: safety issues with 3D printing materials

I see many things being used here with very little talk of hazards. even ABS melting puts off hazardous fumes that cause many side effects. anyone had blood shot eyes after using printer indoors long periods near you? thats just one sign of trouble. we need to get and read MSDS info for all materials used and take proper precautions to prevent harm to ourselves and loved ones. simple mostly like venting fumes to outside and fresh make-up air. you can do irreversible damage to yourself by ignoring this. heed the MSDS warnings. dont use products if unsafe for human contact. nothings worth that. thats why we dont make lead toy solders anymore for example.

Solidoodle 2 with Deluxe kit cover & glass bed with heater. and 2nd board SD2 used not 3rd and alum platform not installed yet still wood. also need cooling fan installed to board. use Repetier Host couple vers. Slic3r also have all free ware STL programs
