How long is the wait if I order one?

By Jama, founder, Fish Bladder Woodworking

Here is how it works, so you know what to expect.

Your order goes out to you on its own, with no waiting for other orders. It arrives in 3 to 4 weeks from the day you order, sometimes sooner. We email your delivery dates the same day and tracking the day it ships. If anything will make it late, we tell you before your date, and you can cancel for a full refund. Full details are on the Shipping & delivery page.

That is slower than buying a competitor's unit on Amazon tomorrow, and if you need protection this week you should buy something else this week — breathing dust for a few weeks while you wait for the better respirator is a bad trade.

What the wait buys you is the price. The launch price is $499 instead of $589, and the consumables stay cheap because we are not funding shelf space. If your dust is a next-month problem rather than a today problem, that is the trade on offer.
