Reply to "How safe is model train smoke?"



Do you have MSDS for everything in your home? Lighter fluid? Ivory soap? Comet cleanser? Shoe polish? Vinegar? Why would anyone need that for their home? We're not talking about Draino or wasp killer here, it's mineral oil, you know, the stuff you can take internally when you can't go. Most homes don't have a binder full of MSDS paperwork on everything they have in the house.

I think we've pretty much beaten this dead horse to a pulp on this and a number of other topics, plywood vs OSB, kitty litter ballast et al but like Jason Vorhees it will rise again in the future.

If you have a medical condition that can be aggravated by it, THEN DON'T USE IT! ( valid concern, the only one actually )

If your spouse doesn't like the smell, THEN DON'T USE IT!

If you're paranoid about growing a third eye or a symbiotic twin, THEN DON'T USE IT !

We are all grown adults here and this isn't that complicated.

To paraphrase Linus Van Pelt "Some people can manage to take a wonderful hobby like model railroading and turn it into a problem!"

I just learned mineral oil helps you go!  Perhaps we can flush the fiber supplements and use that fine oil we burn through our trains instead

So are we really beating a dead horse?  When you peer through the smoke, let it smoke, and talk about the smoke, sometimes we see new tidbits on old topics.
