Hi Bill,

The Hobby air system looks very interesting, much better price than the ones I ran into the last time I looked around. Do you happen to know whether the mask and hose attachment will fit under a welding helmet? The only illustration I could find is poor but it looks like the intake hose is front and center and might not work under a helmet. Might be worth adapting to a side input though. The turbine pump sounds ideal, and the price seems just doable compared to a home build.

Thanks for the heads up.

Best regards,

Allan Edie
