Howdy all

Been welding for about five years now, lurked here from time to time, watched Jody's videos religiously for the last couple years.

I joined mainly to ask a question in the safety forum, but now that I've signed up I'll probably participate a bit from time to time.

Anyway, good forum, good info. :D

I just realized there's no safety forum as such.

Should I throw my question in shop talk, or under my process of choice? It's a specific question about a helmet.

Thx

I'd post it under your discipline of choice, or under general shop talk. A lot of people have discussed the SpeedGlas versus others, but you'll see them pop up in a few different locations. Or, normally people come out of the woodwork once Steve or Mick post, (almost like they're waiting for the go ahead to talk to you ;) ).

Also, welcome to the forum!

general shop talk is the way to go....

Welcome to the forum! Ask your question, you will get good responses here. Steve and Mick are not allowed to answer first :(

Hey thanks guys.

I found the solution to my helmet problem by searching around here.

Long story short, I returned it and got a different model.

Be careful when selecting expensive helmets for use around high levels of ambient light. :lol:

Hope I get a chance to chime in on something around here, but I've narrowed myself down to thin walled 304 and 6061 T6 tubing / pipe, and it seems with every passing week I'm forgetting stuff I used to know and filling that brain RAM with esoteric thin wall TIG stuff. :D

Anyway, good times. Thanks for the welcome!

P.S. Thanks to Jody in case he sees this. He's provided me and all of us I suppose with a great deal of invaluable advice!
