I know this sounds ridiculous, but I bought an Israeli surplus gas mask from a catalog and I wear it when I am doing dusty work.

I don't use the actual gas filter though. I cover up the intake hole with material and that keeps the dust out. It also protects my eyes better than any safety goggles I have found.

One other benefit, ever since I started wearing this while using a chainsaw, none of my neighbors has complained about noise.

Of course once the weather gets warmer, I imagine I will have to try something else.
