![]() These look like positive pressure masks from what firefighters breathing apparatus. They may not work just on demand from an outside air source, the air would have to be delivered at pressure. You have reminded me a mate of mine had 3 of these, I'll have to look him up. I hadn't thort of this application for them.

![]() Rip out the valve which requires it to be pressure fed. Stick the end of the hose down your, correction, connect the hose to more hose with a simple air pusher. Make a good air leak near the mask so pressure overflow and exhaust has somewhere to go.

![]() I'll be sure to send my regards to my scuba compressor. What that comes out of an air compressor will poison you?

![]() We are going to tape off and squirt the bottom when we are done filling and sanding before we flip it back over right side up. These respirators were brought to my attention from the RV forum. There was talk about using a bath fan as the air source. I will have to look into that some more when they arrive here at the factory. Right now i'm busy trying to make space in the shop for four crate's of unknown sizes that weigh in at 756# and will be here Monday.

I have two blowers that were from a plane airconditioning system I was planning on using for this purpose, but I'm nowhere near ready to paint yet, so they will just sit on the shelf for a while.

I did see in the big-blue lumber store, various sized devices for sucking dust from the air and catching it in a large filter bag. Might be good for sanding or sand-blasting times, in addition to a face filter mask. I hate the big lumber stores because I've wasted so much money in them.

After thinking about it a bit, I figured that I would rather have the stuff settling onto the ground (and every other vertical and horizontal surface within 25 yards) rather than floating in the air. I do have a dust collector (and that isn't intended to mean some sort of animal control for forum administrators). I find that the 4" diameter flex-hose being moved all about the shop is a little bit worthless for most applications yet the dust collection bag seems to collect quite a lot of stuff I would not want to be inhaling. I think the setup that I really want is to build a little lean-to shed on the side of my garage that is well sealed to the wall and water-tight. That shed would house the air-compresser, compressed-air filter/cleaner, shop vac, dust collector, and a bit of storage. The dust collector and shop vac noise would be outside with the hoses leading in. A vent would connect the garage to the exterior shed through an air filter. All air sucked in to the dust collector or shop vac gets exhausted back into the shop through the air filter. I get about 18-20 more square feet of garage space. I can still listen to the radio while the air compressor, shop vac or dust collector is screaming away.
