Before starting any DIY project, prioritize safety by wearing protective gear such as safety goggles, gloves, and a dust mask, especially when working with hazardous materials or in dusty environments [1][4][5]. Ensure proper ventilation when using toxic substances and always keep your workspace organized to prevent accidents [3][5].

Use the correct tools for each job, and regularly check for any damage [2][3]. When working with power tools, maintain focus, keep both feet on the ground, and avoid loose clothing and jewelry that could get caught [2][4]. Be aware of electrical safety by unplugging tools when not in use and using insulated equipment [6].
