Once annoyance is I often get chips or sawdust coming underneath the
visor, since it sits several inches away from my face.

Has anyone ever used this model?:

Looks even more uncomfortable than the first one :-).

While I agree that a full face shield is the best protection, I find
myself using goggles and a turtleneck leather apron most of the time
because I just don't like wearing the shield.


http://fwd4.me/Z37 $5, on sale for $2 often. I buy these cheapies and
have been known to tape a handkerchief to the bottom for neck
protection. 2" packaging tape works best. Larger bandannas work, too,
and you can stuff them down the neck of your shirt. I truly hate
weedeater detritus and wire brush pieces bloodying my neck all day.
