Default Welding helmets

Hey, maybe that's an idea for an invention - a welding hood with a
built-in cooling fan! I hate it when my forehead sweats under that leather
headband, and the hood slides all over.

You mean you dont wear a welding cap or dew rag, when wearing a hood???

why the hell not??? You like setting your hair on fire??


This is the first time I've ever heard of such a thing, although I have
worn a bandana to keep the sweat out of my eyes. It never occurred to me,
primarily because I'm no weldor - I'm just the detail draftsman who
occasionally gets an opportunity to melt some fluxcore.

Thanks!
Rich
