Expensive, but if it works as claimed, it would be useful (and it appears not to depend on evaporative cooling, so it might even work in the humid East).

As with most items at MSC, if you can find it someplace else, it can probably be had cheaper. This seems to be a similar (or the same) thing at a lower price and with more detailed information.

Might have to get one before summer welding season....

Geesus!, after reading all of these stories (some rather funny), I guess I better stick to TIG welding with my new Thermal Arc 185STW, at least it doesn't throw any sparks! But yeah, never thought of them khaki hairs... All my Dockers are like that (where the heel area drags the ground). When I get bored at the office, I usually just kick up a leg, pull out the ole Fiska's (scissors), and give em a hair cut (but that only lasts a few weeks). And yeah, molten balls of steel from stick welding does indeed make short work of most of these "mountian type shoes" like them Columbia shoes etc since the tongue is mostly thick foam rubber. But this post is indeed a very good reminder. Probably good to just keep a spray bottle with water in it close by - I almost always have one of them, or a windex bottle very close by (force of habit from years of R/C model airplane stuff)

I haven't welded/splattered my rather expensive polycarbonate lensed safety glasses. Yet.

No, I've painted them.

With 2 pack high-build primer and Yamaha racing blue.

Anyone know how to get that stuff off without clouding or otherwise damaging the polycarb lenses???

Oh, and I've lost count of the number of cheap synthetic sweaters I've converted to belly tops with the angle grinder :-)

Ivor.

Yeah, aint that a bitch?

I spent a day scratching some regular lacquer paint off my lenses using my fingernail (for fear anything else would scratch or otherwise damage the coating).

Waterless hand cleaner? The stuff without the pumice?

DON'T quote me if it don't work, though.

OK. I am a happy top-poster, but what one line is your one-liner referring to?
