I'm a little limited for space in my home gym (single garage conversion in the UK) and would like to have my selection of barbells stored on a rack so they aren't taking up floor space. A lot of the racks I've seen have quite large foot prints though so I'd like to buy or make something wall mounted.
Some occupations are associated with an elevated risk of asbestos exposure. Historically, naval shipyard workers are among the most frequently exposed. It is likely that workers who served between World War II and the Korean War came in contact with dangerous levels of asbestos, increasing their chances of developing diseases like asbestos-related lung cancer and mesothelioma.
Sloughing bottom paints, or ablative paints, are an older type of paint designed to create a hull coating which ablates (wears off) slowly, exposing a fresh layer of biocides. Scrubbing a hull with sloughing bottom paint while it is in the water releases its biocides into the environment.
