I don't wear mine at all. This is WV! *laughs* Seriously, I have always 
thought it to be an unnecessary threat to potential shock hazards, let 
alone other damages. A cousin of mine that was my dads' age and worked 
with him back in the early 60's, jumped from a dozer one day and his 
wedding ring caught on a bolt. It skun (WV word - past-tense of "skin" 
as in "skin a deer"*laughs*) his finger inside out and they had to go 
ahead and just remove his finger. I have NEVER worn a wedding band doing 
any work. I imagine a ptv falling over and you instinctively grabbing 
it, and the ring getting caught on the corner could do the same thing as 
jumping from a dozer. It is really up to the individual of course. These 
are my preferences/opinions only.
