Default face shield

Hi,

Does anybody have experience with a protective face shield that works
well for people wearing glasses? My local stores do not seem to carry
face shields although I have not checked them all. It would also be nice
if muffs are incorporated - I keep not remembering where I left those
(not possible with a medieval looking device).

Thanks in advance,

Aaron


I have a different face shield for chainsaw work and another for work
on the lathe. The chainsaw helmet shield (Husqvarna) is a metal mesh
with muffs, very nice and comfortable. You need to get the one for
your particular application.

I use a face shield in addition to safety glasses (no helmet) when
working at the lathe. Woodcraft and Rockler carry them, about $25. I
have the one from Rockler.
