    Helmet liner or such

    I like a hoody, keeps sawdust out blocks wind really well. It gets washed more often. Just try it before you go out for the day. My hoodys are Camo hunting type and have a smoother fabric that has a larger hood opening. Not all hoodys work under a hard hat Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 using...

    Ultimate log splitter build help needed
