I was just curious what people are welding in during the summer months. I am in Atlanta so it has been 95deg +/- in my garage which makes wearing long sleeves and long pants unbearable. Is everyone else just toughing it out or do you all have air conditioned garages? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

sunscreen.
I know I should, but I usually don't bother with the long sleeves and long pants in the summer even when welding. I do put on sunscreen, though. You will burn otherwise. Zach |
