so, i went to mcmark's shop today to work on my car. mostly prep work for the engine test-fit.
lots of cutting sheetmetal and grinding down spotwelds etc. then on to cutting out the /4 motor mounts with the plasma cutter. i *thought* i had it all covered, safety wise, got the goggles, gloves, noise protection ... spent about 5 hours cutting & grinding. then, on my drive home, it felt like i had a sunburn on my arms, but i couldn't really see anything. so after i got home, i take a shower and now i can clearly see that both of my forearms are *covered* with thousands(!) of tiny burn marks!

Eh, when I weld I have at least long sleeves , a hat and mask, and gloves. When I grind, I have goggles, gloves and my shooting ear muffs on. When the weather is at least 70 or under, I also wear overalls. I am deaf enough as it is to want to loose any more hearing. And burns suck, so I try to avoid them.
I tent to wear the same denim shirt when I weld, and it has thousands of little burn holes in the arms. Soon I am going to have to retire it and put another into use. Zach |
