Just thought i would share this with you guys.:001_smile:

Been re-sawing a load of very seasoned oak beams for a customer today, with the wind in my face. Yet again i have had a faceful of sawdust and my left eye is red raw. No scratching this time luckily- last time i was hospitalised with spalted beech, the nurse reckoned it looked like i had sandpapered my eyball- but eyes are sore as hell.

I have tried stihl integra helmet with the built in plastic visor with fine mesh, and that wasnt up to it. I have been using my climbing helmet (vertex vent) and goggles, but that wasnt brilliant, so now i have bitten the bullet and i have ordered a Stein one with the built in goggle things. Alien sawmilling here we go!:001_tongue:

A few other possibilities ..... Severnside Safety Supplies Ltd Bolle Special Application Safety Spectacles the Trackers in particular were very popular at the ATF and also Royal Show

Chainsaw Safety Helmets Ear Muffs Visors Forestry Arborist the 'Super' helmet includes pull down visor

Dont know if any body tried them on at the show, but those safe eye goggles, although a great idea didnt quite fit right as you had to have them fairly tight and in doing so the edge/seal dug into your face. the chap said they were still being delveloped so it might pay to wait a while.

I saw some bug eyes is it in the sherril tree catalogue which were similar!
