Plastic fumes are very harmful to breathe while pouring. A good ventilation system is a MUST and its a great idea to where a mask also. I've been using a 3M mask with replaceable filters. Well the filters are about 20 bucks and are only rated for 8-10 hours. I got tired of buying the filters. So I finally bit the bullet and got a fresh air system. I could have gotten a cheaper one but i went ahead and got a NIOSH approved one. Also went American made. These are made in Stumphunters backyard!

I have to say I LOVE this thing. Constant cool air. I could have bought a bunch of $20 filter cartridges, but you cant put a price on your lungs. Ive got something else in the works that i am excited about. Its still a couple months out though.

I could use my bi-pap machine but I think the Doc might ask questions, as it records every time you go on it.

Jig Man we all wish for more lead!!!!!!!

I had the intake sitting right outside the back door of the shop. After about an hour I caught a whiff of something like flowers. Then much warmer air started fillin the mask. Then it hit me... Steph fired up the dryer which vents about 3 ft away!
