Installing drinking valves in some respirators to be handed out at Pride events this weekend.
The punch press makes the process of cutting the holes faster, easier, and more precise.

We hear lots about Covid transmission at gatherings that had no precautions, but not enough about events where folks were successfully protected.

I coordinated a meetup for https://Kind.Social during PAX West '23 which was deliberately held outdoors with free 3M VFlex N95s. 

Covid was present, but it didn't spread.

The wicks for my PortaCount finally arrived, and they appear to be both in great shape and recently manufactured. The date stamped on them is 08-2022, and everything is still well sealed. Time to finally start some fit testing!

This weekend, I also received a fantastically generous welcome to the 8020 Gang from @fittestmyplanet with some sample probes, stickers, hard to find respirators, and an acrylic custom probe inserter. I'm incredibly thankful and looking forward to putting it all to use very soon.

A much anticipated shipment arrived today. My PortaCount 8020M (aka M41A1 Protection Assessment Test System) is here! I also got a few odds & ends that'll be needed for fit testing. However, it seems I forgot to get any alcohol wicks, so time to shop around. It powers on, though!
