Although uncomfortable and annoying (not just flimzy dust masks--I mean real deal respiratiors), respirators seem to be a clear advantage during the machining process; no?! As I got caught up in the "data" of the Dylos debate, it seems to me that if we had a way to protect ourselves during peak "cutting" times that would deter health issues, while "air-scrubbers" worked on the nonpeak times (and dust collection being a no-brainer). Any suggestions on resipirators? Forced or non-forced? 3M or other brands? Is the comfort worth the risk of health?
