To all youse welder type,
I was welding a small, thin, steel part and the back side oxidised a
little due to the heat. On this part it didn't matter. But it looks
bad and is sloppy technique. While removing the oxidation it occured
to me that a purge box would have been the easiest way to weld this
part. Then I thought that an auto darkening lens might make the job
even easier. So my idea is to put in a large automatic lens in the box
and use a magnifier if needed for the small parts. That way I can also
use my regular glasses and not rely on the "cheaters" in my hood. Does
this sound like a good idea? Anybody done this?
Thanks,
Eric
