For a small arc welder for a small job, is a mask really necessary?
The spark doesn't look any brighter than starting at a bright
lightbulb.
yep, caught a case or arc-eye once from accidentally striking arc while
I was moving to get in better position ... hurts like hell.
Just from ONE arc for a few seconds? That can't be true. I've often
watched people welding for a couple of minutes.
but I suspect you would be much closer if you wer doing the welding
yourself.
