Looks like a big bug! My wife always laughs when she sees me in the paint gear. Now I know why.

Don't you just love grinding on fiberglass?

Hey, ummmmm...

I just got done doing the OSHA Trainer class. I am a Safety Trainer and one thing...

YOU CAN'T HAVE FACIAL HAIR and have that thing work effectively!

Looks good on you though!

You have an excellent face for radio!

Well, it works better than the paper filter mask I was using!

Yeah, I knew about the facial hair thing. My dad is an OSHA trainer as well...

Facial hair is OK as long as it does not interfere from ensuring a proper seal. Positive/negative pressure test will let you know if you have a good seal prior to putting the cartridges on the respirator mask.
