Re: [AMC-list] '69 390 for sale



Gary ,

Really sorry to hear about the loss. It's scary. I fear a fire all the time
and have begun to be much more cautious about everything. I unplug
everything electric every time I leave the shop, or close down for the
evening. My flammables are stored in separate metal containers, I keep my
paints in a heavy wood cabinet. I wish my shop were sprinklered.

Jim,

Concrete and steel are great building materials. but don't fool yourself
into thinking because of that you'll be safe, it usually isn't the building
itself that causes the trouble, it's the unsafe electric hook-ups that cause
overloads, welding, torches, spontaneous combustion of oily rags, stuff like
that. Concrete takes a lot to collapse, metal structures sometimes collapse
sooner that some wood structures, metal gets weak pretty fast as the temp
rises, and collapses.
good thing is, it's non combustible.
