Question Safety

[DTronics]

So I'm going to start trimming the Wii Board but I have been a bit hesitant as I've heard that the dust isn't good for your lungs and I was wondering if anyone could recommend some form of safety equipment.
Hopefully not too Expensive

I use this when trimming, sanding and using Bondo. Works great and is well worth the money if it keeps me from getting lung cancer.

Thanks, I guess I'll be buying something similar as I'm in the UK.
Thank you none the less.

Just wondering but could I use this I'm not too sure because it seems cheap but it is definitely within my budget https://www.amazon.co.uk/Latinaric-...TF8&qid=1527275205&sr=8-3&keywords=Respirator

Pretty much any basic mask will protect you from dust while trimming.

Thanks, Now I can finally start.

I bought this one and it fits and works great, also from the U.K so next day which is nice. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000VDPNCQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I know this isn't related but what wires should I use on the regulator and what should I use for wiring the Wii.

Thank you. Probably should have looked there first.
Thanks again.

Just wondering what thickness of wire should I use for the regulators also where can I find the specific resistors?
One more thing can I use this for any of it https://www.banggood.com/5-MetersLo...s=detail-left-viewhistory__1&cur_warehouse=CN.
Thank you.

For a Wii, use 22-24AWG wire for power, and the resistors can be found on ebay or digikey. If you can't find the exact values, just get 1/4w resistors with a lower value than what the table says. You can safely use resistance values up to 10% lower than what the table says and still be fine. 330ohm instead of 353ohm is fine for the 5v reg, for example.

So could I use this https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy...j9s0aAgpkEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&___store=en_us

Yep, that'd be fine. Just be sure to mark the wires with what they're carrying if they're all the same colour.

Ok, thanks again.
