Good morning my woodworking friends. I know it has been a while since I posted but an awesome product is now being offered again and I wanted y’all to be the first ones to know about it.
I ran into a company a couple years ago that make a wearable filtration system very similar to those made by 3M and the like, but at a fraction of the cost.
The product is called the Breathie Thingy and is belt worn, true filtration. Nothing like the Airshield that was bulky, heavy and didn’t really filter anything. I think it might have been worse than wearing nothing as the filter would get caked with dust.
The Breathie Thingy uses a more common P3 replacement filter instead of something proprietary like the others. I am telling y’all this thing is worth the money. I have sanded for hours on a project and did not get the neck fatigue or sweaty head. On the contrary, the positive air face mask actually cooled me down.
Give Jama and the folks at FishBladder Woodworking a chance and order one of these.
Powered air-purifying respirator built for woodworkers. Full face protection, 8-hour battery, works with beards. Half the price of the competition. Preorder now — ships June 30, 2026.
