I actually just noticed when i looked around on some sites that now there's auto darkening hoods. I literally know nothing of welding, but am very mechanically inclined, and have always perceived welding as this God-Like art form. My brother in law welds building rods every day, but is too busy to take in an apprentice. (freakin' don't get me started how wrong that is) And since this is something i've always felt hinders me, i'm gonna go out and learn as much as the instructors are willing to teach me.
Whoops, back on track tonto. Yeah, i think an auto darkening hood would be a good investment. I don't wanna be opening and closing the hood constantly, and i'll be wearing glasses when i weld, so, it sounds like it'd be easier if the name auto darkening means that it automatically darkens when you throw sparks. lol. See, that's how big of a noob i am with welding.
This is the first time in years that i feel like i know absolutely nothing. Usually i at least know a little about stuff, but, this is all new to me. I've been putting metal together for years with a drill, nuts and bolts and lock tite, now it's time to finally get some real s';t done. I'm amped and classes don't start till the end of August.
