Dust-catching Glove Box

Now that the arm holes are covered in glove, you will need another hole to put the cord of your power tool through. Dust can escape through here but I haven't bothered to cover it. A temporary application of tape is probably the route I'll go if I decide it's necessary.

Check out the last pic for the Super Size box my boyfriend made. He did not add gloves but attempted to block the arm holes with fabric. It didn't work very well and I'm encouraging him to add gloves for the sake of our lungs.

NOTE: it is just barely possible, if you're working with something like wood that's flammable, and using an electric tool, that a very high concentration of dust might possibly explode. So Be Careful.

nice job! Why not add a vacuum attachment thus making your glove box virtually dust free ? =D
