Message: <blockquote data-quote="Buster" data-source="post: 520920" data-attributes="member: 27745">Coosa is very dusty and far worse than FG batting for tiny glass slivers. For the most part I worked it outside or with good dust collection in the shop. Dust mask, rubberized gloves, long shirt and pants, etc for PPE. I just hate days of FG itch. I've been sensitized to most wood dust over the years so I'm used to wearing a mask all day in the shop. RZ Mask gets an (uncompensated) thumbs up from me for a comfortable option. I haven't done anything to date with seat attachment on Coosa. I think if I did I'd use a backer plate of ply or thicker aluminum to distribute the load. I've found the Coosa screws about the same as a lightweight ply of the same thickness but looking at the specs I'm just not comfortable it would stand up to the forces generated by a guy pushing around the long lever-arm of a seat post. At least not the 1/2" thickness I'm using. One of these days I'll get around to posting some pictures and maybe a short build thread of removing the middle seat. Right now life is all about fall chores and winter prep.</blockquote>
