cut Boggers

CSMITH said:
I grooved a set of boggers with a wood chisel and wound up getting chemical pneumonia. it was cold outside and the shop wasn't ventilated very well.
There were 3 of us in the shop , and all of us got sick.
beer and hot rubber dont mix! :flipgotcha:
 
maybe none of us will get sickwe had a fan running so maybe that was enough ventelation. I was kindof afraid to cut to much on them.I cut one spot and got down to the cords and I didn't know if that would hurt them or not.
 
I've cut close to 20 sets of swampers and never got sick from the rubber smell, is it cuz the chisel makes alot more burning rubber smoke? I usually cut on one for an hour or so a day and take my time till their done cuz after I cut the first set of tires all in one sitting, I thought i did nerve damage to my arm and hand from pushing on the groover gun for so long
