[TheForge] Auto darkening helmet

[ries]

Welcome to the 1980's!

(thats when I got my first one)

soon, you will discover many other wonderful new inventions- fuel injection, cordless phones, twist off beer caps, and cordless drills, just to name a few.

Seriously, I couldnt live without my auto dark helmet. 
I have enough projects that require three hands as it is, and lots of them involve being too close to flip a helmet down.

I just got my first auto darkening welding helmet.  Wow, what a difference 
it makes. I welded up a bunch of stuff it was so easy to start the weld at 
just the right place.  Having the adjustable darkness let me get it so I 
could easily see the piece being welded.  My old helmet was so dark that all 
I could see was the arc itself.

I had been planning on getting one for several years, but just never got 
around to it. I only arc weld to make jigs and fixtures so nothing that my 
customers sees.
