[TheForge] Auto darkening helmets on eBay

[Mike Linn]

I've found that a great place to get these helmets are at pawn shops 
located near big welding establishments. There is a place in north 
Birmingham called Meadow Craft. They tout themselves as the worlds largest 
maker of wrought iron outdoor furniture. My problem with them is that its 
all cast iron and welded together, but I digress.  Anyway there is a pawn 
shop just down the road from them that has 15 or 20 helmets for sale at 
very reasonable prices. I want to believe that its because these guys feel 
bad about false advertising... but maybe the pay is lousy....
