I use a Porter Cable 334 random orbital sander ... pulled off the cheesy little dust cup that came with the sander and instead used some plumbing adapters to hook it up to my dust collector.
Sort of like a poor man's Fein sander.
For other jobs in the shop (finishing and plunge routing) I use a half-face
3M respirator with a combination dust/acid/organic cartridge.
We used those, then the rules on test and servicing changed and we went over to 3M 4277's with non-detachable all risk filters, except when serious stuff happens then its full face canister type or SCBA!
Here its SWTSMBO!

OOI, Larry. Were you using a pleated paper filter? If it was just a layer, then you lose a lot of area. I am asking, not lecturing. I was going to set up a boxfan filter. and was interested.

False credit. SWMBO gets used elsewhere, and She Who Must Be Obeyed came for some poor bastard called...ummmm.... Adam?

Someone mentioned gritting your teeth.
By all means get a respirator or supplied-air helmet. But it may actually be posture or stress, not the dust, if you are doing a lot of sanding, standing up, and leaning over the work. bear that in mind if the respirator does not work.
"Rumpole of the Bailey".....
Rumpole has a penchant for giving literary or historical nicknames to friends and foes. His wife Hilda's moniker, "She Who Must Be Obeyed," was originally applied to the title character of H. Rider Haggard's novel "She"

IIRC on other ngs. ??? ICBW, YMMV.
H. Rider Haggard (unfortunate name that) just borrowed it!

_Must_ have been the first one to have realised about SWMBO!
