I'm unfamiliar with him but in the YouTube thumbnails I see him wearing gloves at least once. The other commenter is right however if you're around any spinning items you need to keep all hair fabric and leather far far away from it because very bad things can happen.

Gloves are great for home improvement work, not so great for shop work.

Sure, I'm not saying he's anti-glove or anything, he wears them when almost any sane person would wear them.

Its times like this though:

Changing an ATV muffler.

Now, I know that many, many people would do this without gloves.

But my knuckles would be banged to hell and I'd have scratches all over my hands and arms if I did that job without gloves.
