Seems ok with a little welder to peek at it briefly. The timing of my

Then maybe an auto visor would be better for you

Could be you are in the habit of watching arc strike then using shield
.... bad practise, and not good for your eyes.


No, I mean to position it then lower the shield to strike. But I don't time it right every time, rather like a learner driver crunching the gears by using the clutch and gearlever out of sync. I guess it just needs practise.
