The same alcohol that made you stand there and fill your sinuses with it? :)

I have used a dust mask for years.

No, I dont drink and touch tools at all. But admittedly it was dumb. I have never had a problem with many types of wood before. Then I sanded some wood thats either sapele or mahogany and I just hit the floor.

Some of the foreign woods become micro light dust more than heavy dust that settles, I think that might start the ball rolling.

In case anybody was wondering, the set made five smoking hot, giant embers right in a row. Then I drilled through my hearth and stopped for the night. Im tickled it worked so easily...........this time. It is softer and wears quicker than Tony's healthy basswood drill and hearth did.

I wasted all but one Scott. I was amazed at how quickly it made embers. Less than 20 seconds Id guess, I just couldn't stop making em'!

Is that an ERC kit you used? Nice work cave man!
