Me neither- looking at the sunburn you get from TIG without protection on
the neck and upper arms is enough to make me take it very seriously. Plus,
the flash when my mask sensor misses the arc HURTS!
Maybe we need to start a metalworkers non profit and send our old welding
glasses and shields (sic) to china and Indonesia..
