Reddit mentions: The best hand & arm protection products

A rifle: I personally suggest the Classic Army KM10, but the KM12, Delta 10/12, EC1/2, and ISSC MK22 are exactly the same internally. G&G Combat Machines, like a G&G CM18 are also very nice and popular starter guns.

Extra mags: My personal favorite are G&P High RPS. They're pretty tight in most guns but are well priced, look nice, and feed well. They fit well in Combat Machines, but I've never tested with Classic Army. Some others that fit in Combat Machines, and probably Classic Army, are Ares Ameobas and PTS EPMs. For mid-caps you'll need a speedloader. For high caps, it's not needed.

Battery: I'd suggest a 7.4v Lipo or 9.6v nimh. If you're going Lipo, buy from Hobbyking. They sell decent batteries for cheap. I'm not sure the exact dimensions of the stock each uses, but this 7.4v 2000mah 15-25c would probably fit in both and run them fine. It has a huge capacity so it'll last a while. For a charger, the Imax B6 will do everything you need it to (Charge, discharge, some other stuff) and the price isn't bad. I'd also suggest a Voltage checker for Lipos. The Classic Armys will come with a 9.6v nimh and a shitty charger. For those, just get a new smart charger. The G&Gs have a battery bundle that'll give you a 9.6v nimh and smart charger.

Head protection: For eyepro, I love Pyramex. Pyramex I-force are my personal favorite, and the V2G-XP are very good as well. They're also rebranded by Valken and are known as Valken Zulus and Sierras. The One Tigris mesh mask is by far the best lower face protection I've used. Hard cover where you need it (teeth, nose, lips) and still covers your cheeks. It's also very comfy and lets you get good cheek weld, so you can see down your sights easily. I also wear a hat and Howard Leight impact sports

Gloves: Hand shots hurt. A lot. Some nice gloves like Mechanix M-pacts are a god-send in game.

chest rig: If you want to carry extra mags, the Condor Rapid Assualt is a nice and cheap way to carry them. 6 M4 mag pouches and a lot of MOLLE to attach other pouches. It's also super adjustable and can fit almost every body type.

BBs: I almost exclusively use Elite Force .28g Bio. They're just the best BBs I've used and aren't crazy expensive. You'll have to find a weight that's best for you (Maybe buy a sample pack?) but .28s are generally best in stock guns.

Camo isn't that important, but I love my LBX Combat Uniform. The shirt uses a thin-ish material in the chest and back which is great if you're using a plate carrier or chest rig, while the arms, and pants, are made of a thick material that really takes away the sting of BBs, but still leaves enough that you can feel hits. I also like having an outfit specifically for airsoft. The pants also fit knee pad inserts. All that being said, jeans and a hoodie are perfectly fine.

given your links i think specifying country would help you out some with peoples suggestions.

​

if you take into consideration this is the opinion of USA based stuff i tried to be helpful when i could

​

the mesh mask like you linked is pretty much standard i would recommend that or something like [this one](https://www.amazon.it/pieghevole-protettiva-cinturino-regolabile-QM017-WL2/dp/B07C168FF8/ref=sr_1_21?s=sports&ie=UTF8&qid=1537891661&sr=1-21&keywords=mesh+mask) not familiar with the language probably better deals but the padded sides conform better and will be a bit more comfortable.

​

Goggles: not sure if in europe there is the same governing standards but US we use ansi Z87, i really like Pyramex Full seal dual pane goggles (couldn't find them on your amazon) but they run ~$15 here, ro like a pair of surplus desert Locust goggles off of ebay.

​

Gloves: [Mechanix wear mpacts](https://www.amazon.it/Mechanix-Wear-M-Pact-Multicam-Multicolore/dp/B00LB46CM4/ref=pd_sbs_60_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00LB46CM4&pd_rd_r=9dd90195-c0dd-11e8-92b3-217772d9a3e4&pd_rd_w=6PhCE&pd_rd_wg=JKyry&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=A11IL2PNWYJU7H&pf_rd_p=18ac1db8-8667-475d-a3cb-dc2e0028cb9b&pf_rd_r=RXZEM45JCH5WZM14RHN7&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=RXZEM45JCH5WZM14RHN7) are gloves of my choice come in multicam, and some neutral earthy colors like coyote as well. The Mpacts have a rubber bumper on the back side of knuckles etc and still have good hand dexterity/feel they are pricier but quite well made in my book. Alternatively some mechanic type glove likely will offer good protection and handling dexterity and be found much cheaper wherever.

​

Boots: Really get a decent hiking boot, to me then its dual purpose I use Salomon Gtx2 Mid's special colors arent a huge deal just go for something more natural in color unless you are stickler for a certain unit look (mine are actually a discountinued color which is a deep vibrant green certainly not military but hey they were cheaper and comfy gets the job done). Merrill, Lowa also known for good hiking boots over here. I feel like this one may be more dependant on whats available in your country but TDLR get a decent hiking boot in a neutral color. can use it for airsoft and hiking working etc

​

Clothing: Thats a hard one a good entry point is usually army surplus but againd dependent on where you are. and or budgets as well some people go crazy with Crye and whatnot but my advice starting out keep it simple go like with some surplus it will be more durable than most "airsoft" marketed or grade stuff. High end being europe i think? i would say go like with claw-gear before Crye (actually imported clawgear to us here as was cheaper than crye been happy with it so far) But really some decent milsurp or mid/entry level branded tactical stuff like 5.11 etc vs airsoft or Chinese knockoffs.

​

whew and sorry for the block of text!

Ok. Did some reading.

I'm not going to sugar coat this because well, I don't believe in that.

Welcome to the dark side. We have goldfish crackers. (BTW my roommate was an aide for 20 years and said that they are convenient because if they are attacking you, you can throw them at them and it will distract them for a while.) Invest in goldfish crackers and fruit loops. They make good rewards.

Buy this book. I really wish someone had recommended me that book before I stepped into an autism classroom. I reread it now every once in a while and still learn new things.

Start here. Go through the rest of her blog. Subscribe to it. She runs an excellent easy to understand blog.

Visuals are insanely important. Subscribe to LessonPix. Your school may have Board Maker, but I find it very difficult to use. Plus, LessonPix is online based so you can create something at home and then access it at school or vice versa. It is like $36 a year, which is insanely cheap. For my visuals, I usually put a picture with the word on the bottom.

You will need velcro. Do not buy it from a store. This is a wholesale place online. They have the cheapest velcro out there. I buy coins so I don't have to cut it, it makes it a lot easier. If you are going to cut velcro, get titanium scissors. They will not gum up when cutting velcro. Have a system with your velcro so you don't have random patterns of velcro. I usually do soft on a surface and rough on anything that travels.

You are going to need a personal laminator. My binding has the cheapest 5 mil laminating sheets out there. Use 5 mil for anything that travels and if its going to stay on a wall, use 3 mil. 3 mil or 1 mil (what the school laminating machine uses) tears easily and doesn't last. Once you create something, you don't want to lose it. Most any laminator will do. I like the Fellowes brand. This is a very good one. That my binding website has some awesome deals on laminators. Whatever you get, just make sure it doesn't need a carrier sleeve to laminate because those are annoying. Just make sure that if you from 5 mil to 3 mil you switch the laminator over to 3 mil and let it cool or there will be a burning smell. To save time I bought one of these. Just makes cutting faster.

Don't overspend on stuff for the classroom. Look at oriental trading post. You can find a lot of stuff there. Sign up for the newsletter and wait from a free shipping coupon, don't pay for shipping.

Get yourself a couple pairs of these. I like the 18 inch ones. Make sure your tetnus shot is up to date.

You probably need to brush up on your evidence based practices for autism too.

I know this is a lot of information. But these are all things I wish people would have told me before I started teaching this level of autism kiddos. I went into it blind. I've had to put all this together through reading, training, and observation. Its easier just to be front loaded with the information.

My first year teaching, I was put in a K-1 mod/severe autism class (your setting 3). It was the first autism specific class at the school. Nobody gave me any support. I had no idea what I was doing. I had very little formal training on autism specific teaching. It was like being sucked into a vortex in deep water with nobody around to help me. I didn't even know where to go for information. That's why I try to help people and be completely honest. I'm not trying to overwhelm you.

If you need help and support, let me know. My MA.Ed is in Special Ed with a specialty in Autism Spectrum Disorder. I am teaching a class similar to yours at an elementary school level next year. I'm really good at dealing with behaviors and data too.

Multipurpose waterproof match case. I prefer this case because it's not much bigger than other waterproof cases, but has other stuff built into it. I put waterproof matches in it along with the striker strip from the package. The whistle is good for signaling. The other functions are marginal, so I supplement them with the actual things, which consist of a signal mirror, lensatic compass, and emergency fire starter.

A stove and solid fuel. I was pretty impressed with this particular one when I received it. It's stainless steel, well constructed, and you can store four fuel tabs inside of it.

A multitool and a fixed-blade knife. I don't have either of these specific models, but they seem pretty decent.

A folding shovel. These are good for burying waste, helping a car gain traction in the winter, etc.

A self-adhesive bandage. This is a three-pack. The single one cost $4 locally. Buy this one and leave the other two in your medicine cabinet. Wrap the remaining one around a piece of cardboard and put it in your emergency pack.

Disposable antibacterial wipes.

Antimicrobial silver gel. Like Neosporin, but better. Stays on a wound for multiple days without covering, and the colloidal silver is a strong antimicrobial agent. See the oligodynamic effect.

Dust masks. This is for a 50-pack, but for half the price, you only get 10 at a local store. These help prevent you from spreading germs if you're sick, and keep you from inhaling macroscopic particles if you're in a dusty/dirty area.

QuikClot sponge bandage. This helps to stop bleeding from major injuries. Along with an Israeli battle dressing you have two great ways to help stem major bleeding, separately or combined.

Local anesthetic for stings. Good for numbing injuries other than stings, too.

Sterile pads, 4” x 4”.

Sunscreen.

Cigarette-adapter power inverter. Good for charging small electronics.

Hand warmers.

Work gloves and watchcap.

All of the following are probably best bought in stores or scrounged up around the house:

Toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, all with obvious uses.

Aspirin, for heart attacks and pain, ibuprofen for pain, anti-histamine for allergic reactions, and Imodium or off-brand equivalent for diarrhea. I can't stress having Imodium enough. Having cramps and shits can render you unable to do anything for long periods of time, even more so than other ailments.

A disposable razor can be used to shave to keep up appearances, or to shave the area around a wound for better bandaging.

Maxi pads and tampons can be used as intended as well as to prevent bleeding from wounds.

Toilet paper. Wrap it around a piece of cardboard to save space.

Bandanas or an old shirt can be used to make a sling, protect yourself from the sun, filter macroscopic particles out of water, filter dirty/dusty air, etc.

Hot chocolate with caffeine added can be used to help stay alert.

Lighters are a must-have to start a fire.

I also have a Ziploc bag containing about ten cotton balls soaked in petroleum jelly. They're great firestarters.

Cash. Keep various bills and coins in an amount that you think is suitable for emergencies.

Maps. Carry folding maps of your area, state, and surrounding states.

I think that covers everything that I have. There's a lot of redundancy, but it all fits in my bag, so I'm happy with it. I'm definitely interested in hearing thoughts as to what can be added or changed.

Adam Savage did a big thing on this and he has some great advice.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nprbd76FFFI

As others have indicated, it depends what you'll be working on.

As far as a multitool, you shouldn't rely on one utterly. I have one that I carry at work but I virtually never touch it when I'm working on a project with my own tools. It's basically a back-up in case I'm at work and need a screw driver or pliers and don't have one at the ready.

Multitools are incredible but they're not nearly as good as the individual tools themselves are at their individual jobs; yes the pliers are good but a pair of dedicated pliers is going to be much better.

I do a lot of odd-ball things; a lot of salvage, tear down, scrapping, etc and as such I have a bit of an odd assortment of tools.

A couple of my indispensables;

• A good set of wire cutters. I'd recommend having two or even three of these if you can; one for use only with smaller wire, the others for whatever else you need them for. You really don't need to be name-brand about this, I still use a pair I bought at the dollar store five years ago and they work just fine.
  
  
• A heat gun. It comes in handy for so many different things. A basic one is like $20 off Amazon.
  
  
• Strong knife with serrations. This is probably my most used tool and it does so many things. The serrations are vital, they add a lot to the cutting power.
  
  
• Jeweler's screwdrivers (sometimes called microscrewdrivers or eyeglass repair screwdrivers). These come in handy on virtually a weekly basis for anything you can imagine. Even a basic kit from the dollar store will save your bacon repeatedly and I highly recommend getting a set.
  
  
• Gloves. Get yourself a pair of basic padded work gloves. Something like these will save you a lot of pain and frustration with virtually any project. I can't recommend these highly enough.
  
  
• Electrical tape. Good stuff for almost anything.
  
  I would also say don't feel like you need to buy every tool you think you might possibly one day need. I've developed a lot of skills that revolve around having to finish something and not having the proper tools or materials to do it because I'm generally very broke and tools are not something I have ready access to. There are obvious concessions to make to this when it comes to things like safety and the bare minimums (cutting plywood with a multitool saw sucks balls) but all in all having to improvise and be creative with what you have can be very instructive.

Not an Über driver, but a frequent uber passenger.

I've got WeatherTech's in three of my cars (Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Focus, Toyota Camry), and Husky WeatherBeaters in two (Ford Fusion & 2nd Ford Focus).

I'd seriously consider the weatherbeaters. Here in Canada, we need them to hold liquid (melted salty snow) in the winter, and the WeatherBeaters are usually a better fit with more coverage.

The Weather Beaters are cheaper than the Weather Techs, but might be a hair less professional looking. Personally though, I don't think I will ever buy WeatherTech again, they're fantastic, but the little bit of edge in looks doesn't justify the extra costs to me.

I'd also strongly consider the trunk liners from WeatherTech if you are ever picking up passengers with groceries, just in case a jug of milk breaks you won't have to deal with milk in carpet.

Oh, and finally, from my medical training, keep a box of MidKnight Nitrile Gloves in your car along with some paper shop towels. The MidKnight gloves are the best of the best, and are latex free in case your passengers happen to have latex allergies. Also helps if you need to clean up nosebleeds. Blood borne pathogens are bad news!!

Another small handed individual here! These are the gloves I've grown accustomed to- https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00004XOHE/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1518891117&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=framer+gloves&dpPl=1&dpID=51YI88yQobL&ref=plSrch
My only real qualm is that I have been able to wear them out with some very heavy use, but they are cheap so I just order another pair if I get to that point. They are an excellent fit for me personally, flexible but with enough support and structure to still be gloves. The main thing I'd look for, whether you go with this brand or not, are framers gloves. They are a hybrid between fingerless and full fingered, freeing your thumb, index, and middle fingers which gives you identical dexterity as if you weren't wearing gloves. It's perfect for working with small hardware. I do keep a full fingered set on hand as well for certain tasks, but the framer style is my go-to 90% of the time.

What a wonderful idea for a contest.

I've had a rough time recently, some real ups and downs... but in order to keep this from sounding like a sob story I'll spare the details. If you're curious, I don't mind answering questions in PM's.

What I really need is my car fixed, but that's just something I'll have to take care of in order of priority. I don't have any friends here (in my town), but I am going over to meet a guy tonight that's going to help me build my forge. By all indications this could be my first local friend, and I'm excited for a couple reasons, one being having a friend, and two being FIRE!! FIREE!!! FI... uh... Blacksmithing!

Speaking of fire though, Blacksmithing carries a certain risk. Not only are you dealing with a coal (or gas) fire that can get upwards of (or higher than) 2000 degrees Fahrenheit (1093 C for those of you using that system.) but you are heating and handling that metal. I built a small soup-can gas forge and hammered a little bit on a railroad spike, but wasn't using proper tongs or PPE. I hit it, my pliers lost their grip and the hot spike flew up and hit me in the face just below my right eye. I got lucky it didn't hit my eye. Even though it only made momentary contact, it still burned and hurt for a week.

So, right now the items on my wishlist that would actively benefit my continued well-being would be the safety equipment on it. There's a heavy apron, a pair of welding gloves and a pair of decent safety goggles that would help protect me from flying super-heated metal.

A miniature sewing kit. When you’re running missions outside, clothes tend to get ripped, and with only limited numbers, life can get rough. A sewing kit helps.
Spirarcha chili sauce. If your soldier likes spicy foods, send them this. It’s spicy, it has flavor, and it will last them a few months.

Socks and underwear. Send them hiking socks and replacement pairs of underwear. Clothes tend to get gross and if they don’t have laundry, sometimes it is for the best to toss out old underclothes and wear new ones.

Beef jerky.

Trail mix of various types.

Great ideas for one-time gifts. These range from relatively cheap, to pricy and are a great surprise to a soldier stationed anywhere. I’ve included links to the products to give you an idea of what they look like, though don’t take those links as the only/cheapest place to find them:

Adjustable two-point sling. On base they have to carry around a weapon everywhere, and on mission they’ll be going some serious distance with it in their hands. If they are still using an Army-issue plain sling life is going to get a bit annoying. An adjustable two-point sling makes things more convenient and lets them ready a weapon to fire without an awkward movement on a mission. Ignore this if they are using a machine-gun, because those use heavy duty slings. Various companies make these, I prefer the VTAC, but they are all similar in make.

Surefire Earplugs. On mission, soldiers are supposed to wear earplugs, but many don’t because its uncomfortable and often all they are issued are cheap low qualifty plugs. Surefire earplugs conform to the shape of the ear and they are designed to allow someone to still be able to hear conversation level noise while protecting from high level noise. These are great.

Head-Loc helmet straps. One of the greatest pains is a helmet that won’t stay secure. The Head-Loc straps stay tighter and make the helmet so comfortable that you forget you’re wearing it.

PMAGs. Magpul plastic magazines, or PMAGs are high quality replacements for metal GI magazines. Army issued metal magazines are often used for years past the date that they should be retired and they are prone to feeding issues (I won’t get into the details) and PMAGs fix many of those issues and give a soldier more confidence in their equipment. A combat load is 7 magazines, so don’t feel the need to buy more than that, and even one or two PMAGs is greatly appreciated. Ignore if they are using a machinegun.

Head-lamp. Walking around an outpost at night is tricky and Afghanistan can get dark, a head-lamp is a great help to keep your soldier from stubbing their toe or walking into barbed wire. Get only with some kind of red or blue light filter.

Mechanix gloves. Soldiers need to wear gloves on mission and they tend to get torn up, a replacement pair of mechanixs gloves is a good choice.

OK dont worry you guys. I've got this. First things first, you're going to need to open up a credit card with a high limit. $30k should do to start.

• Rubber Floor Mats. I got the Mopar ones. I might suggest Weathertech instead. If you have the unlimited, you can get mats for the back was well. I cannot find any mats for the back of my two door :(
  
• Have a dog? Plan on running with the roof off? Want to prevent them from falling out? Safari Straps have your back.
  
• Off Roading? I suggest some tire deflators to air down conveniently, and a portable air compressor to air back up.
  
• Grab Handles are great. Here's one example, but I recommend shopping around. Theres a lot of different styles, find what you like.
  
• Hi Lift Jack & Base. You'll quickly find off road that the stock jack will not get you out of a lot of situations. The base is helpful on soft surfaces (wet dirt, sand, etc).
  
• Change your own damn oil! It's easy. No jack required just shimmy under there. Make sure to get an oil catcher big enough for your motor. 6-8 QTS if I recall correctly.
  
• Buy a shovel. Invaluable off road
  
• Recovery Strap & learn how to use it properly.
  
• Mechanics Gloves. Again very helpful around the jeep.
  
  That should get you off to a good start. Eventually you might think about replacing the bumpers, adding a tire carrier, lifting the jeep, getting bigger wheels, adding a winch, adding a roof rack.

• Kreg pocket hole jig -- $40 to make carpentry projects super easy.
  
• Rivnut tool -- for mounting things to sheet metal.
  
• Shop towels -- more versatile paper towels.
  
• good cooler -- ice last 5-8 days even in the middle of summer heat.
  
• bug nets for windows -- but them pre-made or build your own. Gives you airflow in summer without letting the bugs in.
  
• candle lantern -- cheap. Safe if you blow it out before crawling into bed. Nice soft lighting to give you a break from blue LEDs.
  
• Aeropress coffee maker -- great coffee where ever you are. Quick and easy to clean.
  
• mechanic gloves -- for when you've got to do work and don't want super greasy hands and bloody knuckles.

I biked to work today. It was windy, but altogether a pretty pleasant ride overall. I guess I can provide a few tips.

• I use http://forecast.io and the companion app Dark Sky to get really accurate forecasts for a certain location over the next hour. This morning, that allowed me to ride during a gap in the rain.
  
  
• For clothing, I recently bought these two things and they work like a charm in combination with a headband (for ears):

  Also, lights and reflective tape go a long way.

Gloves, use them for a very long time, not too much protections, but super comfortable and durable

I fell at 30 mph with these gloves and it saved my palms. These are designed to absorb high impacts on the palms and I agree that they're not as great as wrist guards. But they do give you the freedom to move your wrist comfortably, compare to wrist guards where they really restrict you. Small things like being able to use your phone with wrist guards are sometimes difficult.

Overall, wrist guards are great if you go high speeds and the mechanix gloves are great on casual daily rides.

I'll link a few that I've bought. I've used all of them for different things, and there are somethings I just won't use 'em for after. I'll always have a few to rotate and wash.

• Memphis Ninja Lite N9696L - For handling produce or meats I'll try and use the stores own ordered thin/blue/black gloves. However, if I'm handling chicken that always leaks, I'll either throw 'em or put em in a plastic bag to bring back home and wash.
  
  
• 300 INT Ice Gripster - For the freezer I'll also use the stores bought gloves.
  
  
• CLC 125L + True Grip Heavy Duty For general working around I've used these two. I think you'd like them as they have the touch screen on 'em so you can use the devices with. I've learned not to work with freezer/produce with these because moisture in the long run fucks 'em up. Well that and moving wooden pallets all over the place.
  
  
• Hex1 2120 - These also have the screen touch. These have been my favorite ones. A bit tight fitting on me for a large. Expensive though. Actually have been asked about them from the remodel construction crew and steritech technicians(?).
  
  I haven't minded paying the price for these as they've saved my hands throughout most of the shit I've handled. And I get to continue to use 'em/share 'em when doing my own work or helping others. The touch-screens I've loved a lot with the Zebra, but I try and be careful with them with moisture/sharp objects since they seem to deteriorate quite fast when not paying attention.
  
  There hasn't been a pair that is perfect for everything, but because I can bring these and leave 'em in a box in the back I just switch out for whatever I need at the time. Right tool for the right job.

Yes, I really like that slaw too. I've used it for several other dishes. You don't need a mandolin, but that really helps. And I love these gloves to protect your fingers (mandolins scare me):

Thanks for the reply!! I read this yesterday and it honestly helped me to get motivated. I bought these gloves from amazon: https://www.amazon.com/NoCry-Cut-Resistant-Gloves-Performance/dp/B00IVM1TKO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1504298736&sr=8-1&keywords=cut+free+glove
and they worked amazing! I wore them today and the bites didn't hurt:)

I have a couple of devices to suggest that might help you out a little bit. And then some Recipes..

[Salad Cutter bowl]
(https://www.amazon.com/LIPR-Cutter-Lettuce-Vegetables-Seconds/dp/B078SSFJSY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1539094959&sr=8-1&keywords=slicing+chopping+prep+tools)

[Cut resistant gloves]
(https://www.amazon.com/NoCry-Cut-Resistant-Gloves-Performance/dp/B00IVM1TKO/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1539094959&sr=8-6&keywords=slicing+chopping+prep+tools)

These could be used I think for chopping some smaller items too not just herbs

[Herb Scissors]
(https://www.amazon.com/Jenaluca-Herb-Scissors-Kitchen-Shears/dp/B00LRKMK96/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1539094959&sr=8-16&keywords=slicing+chopping+prep+tools)

[Onion Chopper]
(https://www.amazon.com/Prepworks-by-Progressive-Onion-Chopper/dp/B00FOI4324/ref=sr_1_30?ie=UTF8&qid=1539095190&sr=8-30&keywords=slicing+chopping+prep+tools)

Some of the items in this dish can be purchased ready to go like the onions and bell peppers. I also buy diced pickled jalapeños to use in dishes cause I can't touch them.

In this recipe they want you to cook the chicken from raw and then shred it. that could pose quite a challenge. I used rotisserie chicken already chopped that worked better for me.

[Homemade Crock Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup]
(https://www.copymethat.com/r/cPq2HJk/homemade-crock-pot-chicken-tortilla-soup/)

[Black Bean Garnachas]
(https://www.copymethat.com/r/MK9iKnW/black-bean-garnachas-diabetic-cooking-ch/)

For this one I would buy the carrots already sliced.

[Campbell's Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice]
(https://www.copymethat.com/r/4hlLTG0/campbells-creamy-chicken-and-wild-rice-r/)

One of those chopper devices would help here unless you buy the frozen chopped onions.

I like to wear one of these on my hand used to hold the piece, and one of these on the thumb of my knife holding hand.

You're out almost nothing, and you'll have some really great protection that wont hinder your dexterity.

1. If you are planning on buying one specifically for the event, a generic mil-surp ruck will handle your first few challenges. I would avoid frame packs, as challenges can be pretty awkward if you can trying to wrestle around a metal frame during PT.
   Another option is to ask around inside of the Facebook group for your event. There might be an alumni willing to loan you a spare ruck.
   
   
2. Your ruck and bricks are usually the least unpleasant aspect of what you'll be carrying around. I'd focus on getting as strong as possible at your current bodyweight, instead of cutting weight (and strength, and endurance) to be allowed to carry fewer bricks. If keeping the 5 pounds makes you more capable of lugging around a water can, log, chunk of sidewalk, buddy, etc... that's the way to go.
   
   
3. Regular old Mechanix gloves have served me very well, and are pretty cheap. If I know the area is really sandy (and likely to work its way in to the velcro and open up the glove), I've been known to throw a strip of electrical tape around my wrist to just strap the things on for the challenge.

4. The dedicated training plans on the site are quite good (so is Military Athlete, though not free - http://militaryathlete.com/page.php?page_ID=12&cart_category_ID=54), but just following as much of http://training.goruck.com as possible is my recommendation. A lot of effort goes in to their programming.
   A 40# sandbag can function as half the gear you need for a basic fitness program at home.

Welding gloves work really well, too.

http://www.amazon.com/US-Forge-400-Welding-Leather/dp/B000MRQAJG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452776161&sr=8-1&keywords=welding+gloves

I have had this set for 2 years and use them for shuffling logs, moving embers for cooking, moving pots and dutch ovens, and moving charcoal in a grill. Not really recommended, but they work great. Think of them as super oven mitts.

The only equipment you need is a tank and reel, thermometer, some measuring graduates, and a dishpan to get the chemicals up to temp. Some clips to hang the film to dry, even clothespins. A closet or room capable of being 100% dark with no light leaks or a changing bag. The raw chemicals to process 10-50 rolls of B&W might be around $30-$45 depending on developer. With Rodinal or HC-110, cost per roll gets down to a buck or so I'd guess, though never done the math. A good pair of scissors and some print file sleeves for your format. I like cheap cotton gloves for sleeving my negs.

The really cool thing about doing your own B&W: a given film and developer are a system that work together; a system you can tweak fairly extensively. The control available through developer choice, and controlling dilution and time, is pretty remarkable. So if you really advance into this, and find you really like B&W, at some point you may find you have to soup your own film to get the look you want,

E6 can also benefit from developer control (when I shot fashion and editorial, every single roll and sheet of E6 I shot got pushed at least 1/4 or 1/3 stop). I don't think developer choice is as big a deal with E6, but mild or extreme pushing can give you very cool results.

Besides keeping your knives sharp in the kitchen (dull knives cause more injuries than sharp ones!) everyone should have at least one cut resistant glove in their kitchen for when you're doing stuff like a lot of chopping/cutting or especially when you're using the great finger-tip eating Mandolin.

Cheaper than stitches...at least in the US. I'm sure you Canadian and European fans are just slicing your hands up all over the place knowing your healthcare is better and cheaper. May as well get your money's worth!

Pretty sure that's what you're looking for and I agree with the guy above, the rubber has been peeled off. I've worn out many pairs of those exact gloves on the job over the years (not an operator operating operationally on operations, more of a mechanic mechanicing mechanically on mechanics) and the rubber generally starts to peel off at the tips of the fingers and is actually pretty stiff. It peels and sticks off like a claw and for me, since it snags every time I try to put my hand in my pocket for a wrench or screwdriver, it's annoying and slows me down on the job. For anyone handling firearms it could be quite more than annoying if you're operating the controls on your weapon and those little extra fingers are hitting and snagging things they shouldn't. I can't really recommend these gloves since there's so many better options out there.

I wear these pretty much exclusively now and they're a much better glove; https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B007INZVHO/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1494520261&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=mechanix+tactical+gloves&dpPl=1&dpID=51X-vZoJljL&ref=plSrch

Happy Birthday! I hope that your day is the best day.

I would love this or this

Most days I wear Kinco Deerskin Gloves and they are warm and durable. They suffice in most Sierra Conditions. If the deerskin gets wet, it dries supple, unlike cow leather. For storm days, I generally wear these Kincos. Both pairs get snosealed in the oven, and work pretty well.

Next time you're on the hill, look around, and chances are the Patrollers, Lift Mechanics, and other personnel who work outside will be similarly gloved. Kincos are our industry standard because they are warm, cheap, and durable. My "ski" gloves sit in a drawer collecting dust, because my Kincos are better, and I'm not worried about ruining them on the clock.

Mechanix Wear Tactical MultiCam M-Pact https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LB46F5I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_VZufzbZYY05VP
So far they are great. Easy to use a rifle with, and they fit like a glove

You're really not gonna get a consensus on this, this is such a subjective question.

Personally, I recommend you start off with something like base level Mechanix. They're a bit cheaper than other options, are decently sturdy, and a good introduction into what you want out of combat gloves.

Those coyote ones are what I currently use and they're far far better than the 5.11 gloves I started with. The 5.11s started to fall apart after a few months and were just overall less comfortable than the Mechanix.

That does seem like an expensive piece of kit - and if you do decide to return it and buy a cheaper model, Id recommend buying something like these (protective gloves!). They might seem like overkill, but even as a fairly experienced cook, using mandolins (even with the hand guard) gives me the heebie jeebies!!

Maybe not the best for pulling pork, but welders gloves are great for the grill. They can be had for not much more than a good pair of leather gardening gloves.

Several people I play with use Gorilla Grips from Homedepot; I have used them and they work very well. Another industrial glove I have used is MaxiFlex Ultimate and I love them but are harder to find in stores.

I have tried Huck Nation (didn't like them at all) and Friction gloves (good, but not worth the price) and neither of them compared to the value of $3-$5 gloves found at your local hardware store. When in doubt look for gloves with a Nitrile coating and you will be very happy.

I like ones like this

They are a lot thinner than most of the ones that my employers that required them would buy. With a thinner glove I was able to feel what I was doing better so my finer knife cuts didn't suffer as much.

If you want a chain mail one like the other guy posted, here is a cheaper option.

The move seems to be Mechanix gloves.

I've been using these to great success.

gloves, something along the lines of these:

https://www.amazon.com/NoCry-Cut-Resistant-Gloves-Performance/dp/B00IVM1TKO?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_2

everyone's talking about graters and microplanes and that's all well and good til you get a nice big chunk out of your hands.

Are they a little goofy? yes, sure. will you cut your hands? no!

Ironclad Framer.

I like the cutoff index, middle, and thumb. Makes wrapping cable and tying tieline easy.

Just don't use them to load weight on a fly system. I learned that the hard fun way.

Get a cheap food grade kevlar glove on Amazon! They are not very expensive at all and super duper helpful in not getting hurt with a mandoline.

I have an OXO stainless steel folding mandolin and I love it. So. Yeah. I just got into Japanese cuisine for work, and am so thankful that I'm an age-old mandolin-er. I also bought a cut-resistant glove at the same time, and would never ever EVER use the crappy guards that come with any mandolin.

I was fostering some cats that were friendly ferals and bought these for when I trimmed their nails.

Best pet related money I've ever spent.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0035X8L96

I've got gloves like these, I use them pretty much any time I have to cut something now. I loved it when using a grater for cheese the other night, and again for cleaning said grater. It's nice not to have to worry about your fingers.

Here's the same type

I got a pair of these Mechanix and they're pretty great.
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0019I7XAM/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I am also terrified of cutting myself, so my bf bought me nice knives and a pair of gloves like this: https://www.amazon.com/NoCry-Cut-Resistant-Gloves-Performance/dp/B00MXUHHGK

When they came he demonstrated how safe they were against sharp knives and now I use them all the time and I feel SO much more comfortable.

If you can't wear fingerless gloves, the next best thing are something like these. Light and breathable and not bulky so you have some dexterity.

I've never found a pair of glasses that won't fog up eventually, so just get some anti-fog wipes or some Cat Crap.

To add onto this since you have no gear:

Buy one of these batteries: http://www.evike.com/products/52945/

One of these smart chargers: http://www.evike.com/products/61888/ (it is definitely worth the money to not fry a battery)

Some gloves like these: http://www.amazon.com/Mechanix-Wear-Tactical-Original-Covert/dp/B0001VNZUA/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1462666524&sr=1-1&keywords=mechanix

A lower face mesh like this: http://www.evike.com/products/33666/

Some ANSI z87.1 goggles from basically anywhere or a painball mask to substitute for those and the face mesh

And that should be enough to get started

I garden in these gloves. They keep my hands clean and I can feel everything. I don't find that my hands sweat excessively in them. I love them in the winter, when it's cold I wear two pairs.

*Edit, Me Dumb, didn't recognize OP's was for a double pack, it would help if I read...

And $19.48 at Amazon, with Free shipping if you have prime, or $35+ order = Free shipping

This is for a Large, its cheaper for medium or small, and $0.50 more for X-Large ($19.98)

I know this is kind of stupid, but I've been using work gloves instead of pot holders for a while.

Plus: they're cheap. They fit to your hand so you can have more control. They're meant for industrial use, so they should last a long time.

I can't find one on amazon, but they're somewhat between these: http://www.amazon.com/Custom-Leathercraft-125M-Handyman-Gloves/dp/B0002YPZKY/ref=lp_553608_1_4?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1394420057&sr=1-4 and the regular latex dipped work gloves.

I use get a pair of these to ski in. Best money I've ever spent on gloves. I'm sure they could be found at a hardware store around town.

Maxiflex. Hands down. Feel good, fit my hands well, not very thick, but not too thin. I found myself eating lunch with them on sometimes... 9/10 would recommend. Just don't get them soaked.

These specifically.

If you do Amazon, these are popular.
Benriner is the go-to Mandolin. I have one and love it.

"framer" gloves are a good cheap glove that still leaves a couple of fingers and thumb free for more dexterity.

An excellent solution

I have two pairs of these.

Super warm in the winter, too.

For scope: get a used tek on craigslist

For function generator: this kit

For iron: Hakko 888

Dexter are about the best for the price but they're not fancy.

I actually like my fillet knife from Cutco. The blade is extendable and it has a leather sheath.

Bubba blade fillet knives are popular. I don't have one. They come in different sizes and styles.

One product I didn't think I needed but now I can't live without is a fillet glove. Here is one for example glove

I use these electronic ear muffs. They work quite well but sometimes you have to double up if the guy next to you has a big boom stick. Gloves I use Mechanix, they're cheap and good.

Consider Mechanix M-pacts instead, they are cheaper, protect your hands better for paintball and they come in multicam/coyote.

I still do bar/nightclub work, I usually wear a pair of leather sap gloves or a pair of the soft knuckle gloves from Line Of Fire. I also have used Hatch brand gloves with hard knuckles, but every pair of hatch gloves I have owned has not stood up to more than a couple months of constant use. I highly recommend Line Of Fire, I know the Sentry and Operator series are a little more pricey, but they do have some more affordable options that have a pretty high level of cut protection. Mechanix makes a pair of covert tactical gloves that are becoming more and more popular. These Mechanix gloves have become popular due to their affordability, and the "normal" look they have to them, no shaped knuckles or anything that could contribute to the "intimidating" glove style some companies don't allow.

Seconded! I love this mandolin so much! Also, if you’re worried about cutting yourself and find the plastic gripper hard to use, I highly recommend these gloves to go with it.

I got some cut resistant gloves as a gift last year and they look kind of goofy but it's better than losing a fingertip. Otherwise I just use mine very very very carefully and slowly and also not often at all.

Better yet, a nitrile glove over these NoCry Cut Resistant Gloves - High Performance Level 5 Protection, Food Grade. Size Medium, Free Ebook Included! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MXUHHGK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_UY2ADbTF3SKRS

As a Chemist, I second /u/DiscountMohel. I use Nitrile gloves in both my lab and in my home/bedroom. I personally recommend Microflex MidKnight gloves due to the fact that they don't tear as easily as other brands. Even the Microflex Supreno will occasionally tear with rough use.

Hope this helps.

Edit:Words

I use these mostly if its actual real work i'm doing. Camp setup, tear down, etc.

But then I also have a pair of fingerless biking gloves that I use as well. For my daily carry I usually keep the biking gloves if i venture out. The fingerless are good if you want more dexterity and its hot out. In camp I always have the more durable work gloves handy if I need more protection.

I use some Mechanix gloves. They’re light enough that I can still use the remote with them. They’re not the greatest when it starts to get down to like under 30° but they’re better than nothing.

I have these and they work great.

This works for me - I find that it at very least doesn't make things worse, and provides quite a bit of relief from the itching and the pain.

Basically, I slather my hands is shea butter/sweet almond oil/any natural fatty oily bit. Then I put on cotton gloves, and go about my business for the day. Yeah, it looks a little strange in public, but people generally don't say anything. When they do mention it, I just laugh and say I have really bad eczema - they usually laugh with me and mention their sister/cousin/friend that gets it really bad too.

It's a two-part solution for me. First, it helps keep my hands moisturized - KEY for me in regards to the itching and cracking. Second, it keeps me from touching people and surfaces - When my hands are really bad, it hurts to touch other people's skin, and rough surfaces hurt as well. The gloves are a perfect physical barrier.

Even if it is too awkward to do in public, it is still a great option for around the house and while you sleep!

They are way more fantastic than any pair of paintball specific gloves I have used

Good, general use gloves - it comes down to personal preference, but I like the finger coverage especially for pulling the gravel into the buckets or hauling the logs around

If you live somewhere cold, buy these three things for your car before it gets cold. I use all three of these pretty regularly half the year.

That's quitter talk. Go put these on and make her happy.

It's not like it comes up halfway to the elbow, just a bit higher up the arm.

Another option is welder's gloves! These are under $11 (Prime) for a PAIR! And these extra length gloves are $16.50 (again, Prime) also for a pair.

I suspect you could find the welding gloves cheaper at a local hardware store. I bought the welding gloves based on Alton Brown's recommendation, but the Ove Glove and Pitt Mitt have better dexterity, so I prefer them for oven use.

I use gloves with leather palms like these. They work well as general purpose gloves.

These are $8 with prime shipping. I'm sure shipping from the UK would put it well over $8.

Your corps doesn't provide them to you as part of tuition? Really?

If money is really tight you could try to talk to them first, they might be able to help out with something like that. I found this on Amazon - 5 pairs for 8 dollars. They don't like stretch up to gauntlet length but they do cover your wrist, and that's about the length I used.

Really though, talk to your corps staff first if buying your own is that rough on you financially.

I was thinking leather gloves, but are you talking about something like these?:

I've personally never had a problem in all my years in the kitchen, but I understand some people do, which is why I wrote that second sentence. They're even quite cheap on Amazon. Grab yourself a pair.

There's these. You'd need the 11" model. Not sure if it would work though. Pipe cutters get a bit finicky if they're not rolling straight and a baseball is not a smooth surface. Idk, kinda expensive for a maybe.

Cut resistant gloves like these might be a better investment.

I used these back when I was a security guard. Used them because I touched a lot of doorknobs and gates on patrol and my hands would get nasty and gross.

Weren't too hot in the summer and kept my hands warm enough in the winter, but I was still able to do things pretty much normal such as riffling through a key ring for the right key and whatnot.

The only issue I had with them is the velcro would blow out after a few months, but that's only because I was constantly taking them off and on in between patrols every hour. Don't imagine that would be an issue under normal use.

Kinco Gloves are massively popular with people who want something durable and cheap. Just rub em down with wax often to keep the water out.

Always gloves! I took a hit to my index finger and I think it cracked it. Took months to feel right again. I have a set of Mechanix M-pact. Nice and comfy, keeps my fingers warm in the cold, not too hot in the summer, and good grip. I don't feel like I'm losing any dexterity with them and they have rubber protection over the joints. My only complaint is them not working with touch screens.

Yeah. You can find them on amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MXUHHGK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apis_1511840335128

Something like this probably would!

I recently started teaching myself to MIG weld in my garage, and went with these products:

• Gloves
  
• Helmet
  
• Jacket
  
  I can attest to them being quality products, especially considering their price. I didn't get a cap, because I didn't really know that was a thing... but I just wear a baseball cap backwards and it seems to work fine.

Here. I use these for camping and fire prep. work great.

Ordered

Thought the slice I took out of my thumb was a lot smaller than it is. Re-bandaging last night convinced me to get a glove.

Like everyone has said, there is no such thing as bifl gloves. I buy these quite often. There work very well and last a decent amount of time.

I've got this one. Works like a treat with four different cutting options. The handheld guard is good, but you do end up with some waste that becomes too small to carefully cut.

You could buy metal gloves to protect yourself.

Mechanix FastFit Gloves. The velcro wrist strap on the regular Mechanix just gets clogged with mud/grass too easily.

Here are the first things to get. Gloves, because getting shot in the fingernail and having it rib backwards f*%$ing sucks, and good eye protection. The rest is up to you.

Mind you I have only used this stuff to carve this one tiny thing but I figure I can always upgrade to different tools if I stick with it for a while and decide these things need an upgrade.

I found that the coating flakes off fairly quickly when I use these. (commercial carpentry) I use these They're also the type of gloves my foreman was buying for the crew during framing. Good dexterity with screws but you'll need to tape your finger if you're cutting drywall. They don't take repeated friction too well.

Also available at your local Restaurant Supply store usually! I'm not allowed to use our mandolin without one! LMFAO

Edited to add... I have no experience with the glove I linked to and there are lots of others on Amazon, I imagine they are all pretty comparable.

Mandoline, you can get several types. I highly recommend getting cut resistant gloves too. Mandoline is the scariest thing I have in my kitchen even though I use it a lot. You could also try a salad shooter.

Just buy these. Two reasons.

1. When you fight a crackhead and he starts bleeding and then he starts laughing and yelling “You’re going to get my AIDS now bitch!” then guess what? You throw the gloves away and you’re out $17.
   
   
2. I have some of those big expensive “puncture-proof” gloves. Got em as a gift. Nice gloves. Problem is, you can’t feel shit with them on and you lose a significant amount of dexterity. Do they protect my hands? Absolutely. But so would boxing gloves. That’s not what you want, and it’s not what you need.

Yeah. I've been using Mechanix for yard work and other random projects for years. The last pair lasted over two years -
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001VNZUA/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Been using gloves since I got my T300RS, as the rubber covered wheel was a bit too harsh on my hands compared to my old G25's leather.

In the AC official forum I got recommended this Mechanix Fastfit gloves. Inexpensive, good drip and not too warm. Good enough for sim racing.

Around June I switched to the Racequip 2 layer Nomex gloves I got for Real Life track action. Much more expensive and warm than the Mechanix ones.

Mechanix Originals always served me well.

Ive always used the Brown M-Pact gloves from mecanix. They held up well in a crash and I definitely slid on my hands.

After my boyfriend cut part of his finger off I bought him some gloves. Butchers use them a lot and you can find them on Amazon. Usually made of kevlar or chain mesh.

I use these for a few months at a time working in the desert, granted i'm not clearing brush or anything, just light construction. I also use them at home in my shop every day.

has anyone of you guys tried to flip wearing a cut resistant glove like this? is it too thick or slippery?

I'm notorious in my house for slicing my hands in stupid ways while in the kitchen, so my wife got me a pair of these. She did not enjoy my demonstration of them as I tried to cut my palm open. They work pretty well. I highly recommend them or something like them!

Well, not gloves, but you can get some kevlar sleeves.

Cut resistant gloves, like these.

One thing if you use this get a pair of cut resistant gloves with a blade like this you will cut to the bone if you slip.

Yeah, same setup. I have low ceilings and artsy door arches, so I do pullups on a pipe outside. Sometimes I'll wear some of those form-fitting work gloves. Nothing too thick, but something so I'm not touching the metal directly.

Acquired a pair of these when I worked at a BBQ restaurant. Still use them when I get the mandolin out. I have gotten quite attached to my fingertips over the years and plan to keep it that way.

The Jamaican prep cook I worked with ages ago taught me to put on an apron and an oyster shucking glove to shuck oysters. After a few weeks of practice I think I was at least nearly as fast as these guys. I wonder why they don't use the best tools for the job.
