Lessons Learned
Thoroughly plan and schedule work such that the correct tools are at the job site. If activities take place that take the job supervisor away from the job location while critical steps are to be performed, the work should be temporarily stopped. A ferrous tool used in combination with spark-less tools is a potential spark producer.
