Re: Anyone else work with ceramics/clay?
When I was in college around 9 years ago we worked with clay as part of our graded unit. We spent a fair bit of time with it and I imagine we inhaled a lot of it. Some of the people in my class wore those kind of face masks you use when sanding. I think they all had asthma though.
Anyway point being, we were in that room every day for 6 months and as far as I know none of us ended up with lung problems. I imagine its one of those conditions that occurs from daily inhalation of it for a great many years.
Thinking about it, it reminds me of history class. Coal miners used to end up with a disease called coal spit or something from working in mines for decades.
You'll be fine! Promise!
--------------
I was right however the disease was known as black lung worldwide, coal spit was a scottish term.
The condition had a 5% chance of occuring after 25 years in the mines. So there you go! I think you'll survive a bit of clay dust!
