Hey all, So at the moment I am working in a basically non-heated warehouse space. It's really cold right now but my body is fine. The correct clothing/socks & boots make this no problem. The only issue is hands. Due to the nature of the work I need to be able to pick up things that are tiny. Computer screw size for example. Fingerless was my first thought but after trying some cheap ones from Homebase I didn't have a great experience. Obviously any warmth is a help & with or without tips will be fine. The thinner I guess the better. Price is not an issue here I just want warmer hands. Figured some of you here may have some advice or use gloves that are good (Y)
You should either try "Perfect Fit" or specialist plumber gloves, these can be had at any of your local Screwfix shops. I use them all the time for working on the car when it is old and never had an issue with handling tiny parts, screws etc. Take a look at these: http://www.screwfix.com/p/snickers-workwear-general-handling-open-finger-craftsmans-gloves-xl/79157 http://www.screwfix.com/p/activarmr-specialist-handling-plumbers-gloves/74478# http://www.screwfix.com/p/perfect-fit-poly-gloves-black/22273# those last ones are like using a second skin - although they don't last that long, but that depends on the work your doing.
I can recommend the PerfectFit Poly for picking up small objects. Have you considered a heater beside you?
Course, using propane heater when we can. The hands can still take a beating. I've yet to try some but ill report back once I have
