If you're drilling a quartz counter top wear a respirator and use a vacuum. Those tops are 93% Silica and 7% resin. Highly toxic. I'm our stone shops Safety guy!

Having someone spray it with water during cutting helps a lot with the dust as well. But yeah, respirators are a must. Silicosis is not a joke.
