In the other silly question thread, there is some mention of welding
shirts.


I generally weld in an old lighter weight winter jacket. Since I do
pretty much all TIG I don't have much for dingleberry issues from
welding. I did set a sweatshirt on fire grinding welds once, and I
burned a small hole in my knee and pants kneeling on a dingleberry
from some heavy plasma cutting.


I like heavy cotton twill shirts , long sleeve . On the burning issue , I
smoked a hole in my insulated covvies the other day with the angle grinder .
Started gettin' a little warm down there around the boys , I put that one
out right quick too I mean !!
