      Two words for you older weldors ...

      Reading glasses.



      I know if you're like me, you've been avoiding admitting you need glasses to see up close. It's OK. You can call them welding glasses, and if you want, you can even read books and computer screens with your welding glasses.

      I used my new welding glasses tonight to weld up my custom exhaust tips. What a difference! I can really get my head in there and actually see the puddle!

      So if you're like me: an older weldor; run, don't walk to your nearest drug/welding store and get some welding glasses. You'll love 'em!

      The REALLY old weldors use "cheaters". Clear magnifiers to fit in the old school welding shields. From what I've heard, you can't get them anymore.
      The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

      Really??? I don't need them "yet", but an old coot that I worked with told me you couldn't get them anymore. I guess I'll just break his hip the next time I see him for giving me bad information.



      definitely j/k
