[TheForge] Anyone own one of these? Opinions?

Wed Jan 8 08:23:00 2003

I bought the HF "expensive" $160+  mask on sale for about $130 a year 
ago.   I like it a lot.  Maybe I just never got "good enough" at the "nod" 
and found that I too often  did my tack welds without a helmet.

I notice that my 26 year old son quickly switched too,  now he uses my 
hf  mask over my best "nod" welding helmet.

  Speedglas    is supposed to be the best,  ...but costs over $240.  From 
the last go around on this topic,  I remember a few praising their 
speedglas.   I guess none of that is expensive compared to eyes..   I have 
paid a couple hundred for new bifocals.
