Why ask and then ignore the responses?
I watched a sit movie yesterday, and now I have a cold too...

I'm looking at encasing it with extraction to be sure but my question is, have/did any of you encounter such symptoms or any other adverse affects when you first started 3d printing?
Cheers

For ultrafine particles, ionizing filters do a great job.
They charge up any particles leaving the HEPA filter and catch them with the other electrode.

It really makes me laugh this topic, if your worried(and it seems you are.......risk assesments and all that c***), do something else or build it in a toxic free cabinet with an extraction system, please make sure you do your risk assessment when opening the cabinet and make sure you have your safety equipment on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this has built a whole tax system paid quango, this was carried out previously by people with a term called "common sense", its a laff this is!

Come on people, walking outside these days is much worse for your health unless you live in a less-dense area where there are not so many cars passing by all the time.
Last week someone at the academy was standing next to the 3D-printer and when they turned it on he insisted on leaving because he thought it was dangerous so he went outside and smoked a cigarette. I couldn't believe my eyes hahaha
Besides that, I'd would proudly lose some years because I sit next to my 3D-printer all the time, instead of smoking passively with other people outside. Even inhaling fumes from welding on galvanized parts will be long-term damaging, I can't imagine inhaling PLA fumes would do much to a person that gets outside enough and doesn't have any major health issues.
And I'll say it one more time, working with molten plastics can give you a headache at the end of the day and it will only really cause long-term damage, you won't get a sore throat from it unless you are completely locked-in with your printer without any ventilation/draft etc. I think you could only get a sore throat if you would hang above the heated bed and inhale the warm air for an hour So don't sorry

Haha, oh man.. I turn 30 next week, am a single good looking guy that usually hears lower ages estimated.. I never smoked, rarely drink, drink tea in the evening and rarely go out Did boxing, but still do wave surfing, rollerblading, running, going to the gym 3 times a week playing with weights, swim, do speedcycling etc etc etc.. And to be honest... I can't remember the last time I ate at a McDonalds, but I eat french fries about once a week as a strict rule, because everybody needs those unhealthy fats to keep up their reserves!
But oh yes, when it comes to PLA-fume-inhalation I'm the bomb
From my 18th till my 25th I have wasted about 80% of my life-years with stuff you can't discuss on forums like this, so it really is a choice to live healthier now, but the capitalist crapsystem that surrounds me, makes it very hard to eat healthy and consciously since you can't even trust someone that tells you that their food is healthy since they just want to sell it..
But enough about that, besides trying to live a healthy life, and being aware that even thinking that you buy healthy food, may not mean it really is healthy, I don't mind breathing in exhaust fumes and PLA and ABS fumes on a daily basis
Oh and finally, no, I don't think I am better than others.
