Dusk mask dealie

[steve_pss]

Hey Gang,
The standard cheapie dusk masks just fog up my safety glasses and I think I sucked so much MDF tonight the router waved at me and started singing Hendrix. Anyone got a link for a cheap but usable dust filter thingie?

I've had similar problems and switched from safety goggles to glasses which breath a little better. Also, wear the dust mask further down the bridge of your nose. You can still cover your nose without necessarily exhaling directly into your glasses. That all helps a little, but doesn't really solve the problem.

Nothing worse than getting halfway into a sheet of MDF and then going blind from fog!

I'd love to hear other alternatives given that I've gotten old enough to actually worry when not wearing safety glasses (versus my youth when I assumed they were for pansies ). This little annoyance would be a good one to solve.

Don't be cheap.  Spend the extra few bucks and buy a respirator with dual filters.  They sell them at Home Depot.   Test the fit by eating lots of beans washed down with several beers.  Then shut yourself in a closet for a couple of hours.  If you don't smell anything, it's good to go.

BTW, this setup is usually very good for paint, stain, etc.
