I've never heard of a wood dust that's good for us to breath. I do love the smell of osage though. Yummy.

Yeah it's like smoking what your body isn't able to expell your body will scar over and your lungs become more rigid over time. That's how copd happens.

I heat my shop and do all my grilling over osage so I'm exposed to the smoke also.
But do you get your flu shot every year lol!

I'm sure it's not good to breath wood dust.  I have to wear a mask if I'm cutting any pine lumber.  That stuff gets to me.  HHB irritates my throat.  Osage doesn't bother me for some reason.  With my family medical history and the issues I've already had I doubt the dust will be the end of me.
