[TheForge] Dust/fumes mask

[Jerry Frost]

I looked into fume/dust/smoke masks for welding many 
years ago and discovered a filter that'd handle a 
reasonable number of things you're likely to run into 
welding made a stack you couldn't suck air through let 
alone fit under a welding shield.

I'm sure they've improved but you still need to have 
the right filters depending on what metal and alloying 
elements you're welding.

I bought a 3M Whitecap II and oiless carbon vane air 
compressor plus the hardware. Sure it was spendy but 
what're your lungs worth?
