It is especially important to have good air to breathe when torch firing

Since I am not able to install a ventaliation system in my studio, I needed to look into other options. One option I found and use is this benchtop fume absorber: http://www.amazon.com/Weller-WSA350-Bench-Smoke-Absorber/dp/B000EM74SK. Another option I found on Ganoskin was an air purifier which not only pulls in bad air but also recycles the bad air and pushes the clean air back out. Here is the link to the article: http://www.ganoksin.com/borisat/nenam/workshop-air-quality.htm And, here is an article, also on Ganoskin, with ventilation tips by Charles Lewton-Brain: http://www.ganoksin.com/borisat/nenam/workshop-air-quality.htm

Excellent info - thanks again.
