Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) I don't have the specifics but it (actually they) are for 25 man crews and I have to replace perishable items every year. OSHA requires companies that perform hazardous work to maintain these in the event of an accident. I always hope they never need to be used...here is a link to a similar kit. http://www.labsafety.com/LAB-SAFETY-SUPPLY-Industrial-First-Aid-Kits_s_148882/First-Aid-Kits_24535419/ Rod!~ Edited April 18, 2009 by Beth n Rod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adrian 155 Report post Posted April 18, 2009 Here's a great place for complete field kits as well. I swear by these guys as i have used their products for years in the medical field when I was an EMT. Reasonably priced as well.

814jeffw 71 Report post Posted April 20, 2009 A fire extinguisher. Mounted one into the truck this Spring. Don't want the truck or anyone to candle due to infrequent linseed oil use. That is something everyone should do. I had an issue a few years ago with some electricity at a receptacle. The receptacle looked good and sound, but water got in behind it and cracked and popped and actually ignited I saw a small flame and the vinyl siding bot blackened before it went out on its own. But that was a pretty crappy feeling seeing those flames. I was so glad they went out and I went into the home and hit the breaker and informed the customer that possibly even rain could cause that if blown in. Had a fire extinguisher ever since.
