A warning about family in the workshop

My brother-in-law tried to help by tidying my reloading area. He accidentally swapped two canisters of different gunpowders. I caught it just before setting up a press run. Do you ever worry about loved ones not knowing the risks?

My friend's dad nearly used the wrong solvent because her kid moved bottles around.

Man, that reminds me of the time my cousin's kid switched the salt and sugar canisters. They had one of those fancy matching sets, you know? The poor guy made a whole pot of coffee with salt instead of sugar. He took one sip and just about lost his mind. It's wild how a simple swap can turn your morning routine into a disaster. Makes you want to label everything with a sharpie.

That "nearly used the wrong solvent" part is a real heart-stopper. You can just picture it, grabbing what you think is paint thinner but it's really something that strips paint and the skin off your bones (you know, a slight difference). Kids turning a garage into a mystery game where the prize is a trip to the ER. Maybe time to move the fun liquids to a top shelf, like, way up there.
