    Default Triton helmet danger

    I thought I'd better post something after a most unfortunate incident occurred today. I was sanding away, wearing my Triton respirator helmet. The gusset was tight around my neck and the fan/battery/filter unit was belted around my waist, with the unit behind my back.

    Suddenly, the most horrendous smell filled the helmet. It was as if I had crawled up someone's anus on some sort of a reconnaissance mission. I gagged. I spluttered and fumbled to raise the visor.

    Let's put it his way, fellow woodworkers...if you wear one of these helmets, wear the unit on your hip. That way your own farts won't kill you.

    It's even funnier when your mate is wearing a triton and you walk up along side and all the while pretending to be his/her best buddy you let one rip!

    Sounds like what my dear old dad used to call a "rip snorter"

    Should this not be in the Woodies Jokes section?

    This is a known fault with this type of system.
    It has been noted that the problem becomes more severe when beans have been consumed in the hours prior to the fault occurring, particularly when consumed with chili.
