I'm now eating into next Christmas I think....that's definitely it....no more shopping for me I think!
Well I didn't want to do grinding in me new welding helmet and getting the clear visor all messed up!
The missus asked if I had bought a rebel X-wing fighter to go with it....I think thats a strong hint that I need to stop spending on tools!

I recently used one of these - https://www.trenddirectuk.com/air-pro-airshield-pro-respirator-kit-with-8hr-battery , At work
Very nice to use was grinding rust off with a wire wheel so very dirty and dusty job the visor stops the wire smacking my face and a nice cooling breeze frm the fan after filtering out the dust which also kept the shield from fogging up , if you have it on with no fan it wants to quickly fog up but the fan clears it up.
I assume the 3M one will be the same if not better

That's exactly what I got it for....the Figaro project needs a load of paint and rust removing and it's very dirty work with a wire wheel...I wear glasses and I find it really uncomfortable wearing a dust mask and shield together....gets frustrating very quickly and also I often find myself doing stuff and not wearing the right protection. In the winter with the doors closed the garage fills with dust really quickly....not pleasant at all I think....gets everywhere.
The 3m one plugs into the adflo air pack that came with the welding mask so it's all on the same system....

I keep getting additional questions...."do you need to buy another bag for that one too" 
Time to keep my head down for a few weeks....I need to remove the evidence too....if I leave it lying around then it's a reminder I think!

Both I think....last 3 days down the garage all I did was wire wheel on rusty steel...the dust that comes off goes everywhere and its dirty work when you are stuck under the car doing it. The cost of the dust helmet is a lot less than the welding helmet so makes sense not to trash the welding kit I reckon doing dirty work...the lens on the welding helmet was mega money and with the flip front up it'd be very easy to bash and crack it I reckon.

One (US) gallon water bottle! It was a free gift for spending so much at MyProtein. Who needs that much water at a time!

If the local pub was still open, I know a couple of alcoholics that would love to have one of those bottles, for Sunday morning barrel changes to get free slop off the lines.

First use of the 3m grinding air helmet..I can report it is excellent. Having fresh air makes such a big difference and definitely reduces fatigue....but I was eventually driven back in the house because of the cold!

I do. I do.
But the way to my heart and any alarm engineer heart is with food.

Few days ago I did a favour for a friend to help him out and get him back into the good book with his good lady.
I never ask for £££ as he will do a favour in return. But he does do nice things, like bring beer on a Saturday.
But this time he did something better. Not the first time.
He sent me a box.
I know a few things about him and his box's.
They contain stuff I will find useful.
The contents may/will get used on one of his upcoming ideas or projects.
Linseed oil, lint free rags, sanding sealers, brass restoring fluid, bee's wax and something not on the picking list.
Lawn mower blades.
But the fit my mower. So not a waste.
I contacted the supplier and explained the extra item.
They said keep them as an apology.
