I'm not sure about the safety rating of the mask that you are using. I believe that is only a splash guard. Very little protection if anything flies off the lathe. You want something with a frame around it. This is what I use when I'm not wearing my 3M Versaflow https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B001VY3ACE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1In the thick of turning, I sometimes forget to put my face shield on. Usually after I've taken it off to get a close look at something. I stuck a magnetic hook on my lathe to hang my face shield over my on/off switch. Now, I can't turn the lathe on without grabbing my face shield off the hook.

Somehow, I knew that would be the Uvex. Seems like every turner I know uses (or used) that one at some point It is what I have - and that reminds me, I need to order a couple more lenses for it. The current one is rather spotty, thanks to some finishing I was doing recently and getting a little too much shine juice on the piece so the lathe flung it off at me I try to keep a couple on hand just in case, but I am out right now.I'm not sure about the safety rating of the mask that you are using.
