Hey all,
I'm looking to start making wa-style handles soon, but I want to make sure I'm not going to kill myself doing so. I'll be wearing safety glasses, jeans, and an apron (aside from the normal shoes, shirt, etc). However, I wanted to know what filters/cartridges you use. Are solid filters enough, or will I need gas protection too? In addition I want to know if anyone uses a positive pressure respirator and/or if you wear a respirator with a short beard/stubble
I expect to get to exotic and stabilized woods eventually, but for right now I'm just practicing shaping on red oak.
