A friend of mine welds on a regular-ish basis, and often has a full tan in the depths of winter, so it does generate far more UV than you'd
think it does, and at a far greater intensity.

Mate of mine did a little bit of tig welding without a shirt on, and his whole chest came up in blisters.
Re gloves while welding, don't use the heavy gloves usually sold for industrial MIG/ARC welding, ask for the much thinner lighter TIG gloves.
Face protection, I find the full face shields that fit like a welding helmet much better than glasses
Cheers

When I get the dressing off I'll post a pic of my left index finger> I was playing digital roulette and lost
p.s. digital roulette is trying to open a cardboard box with a recently-sharpened lock knife whilst keeping your fingers in the way

Not the first, definitely won't be the last to do that.

I managed to slice my thumb open when hacksawing a bit of tube today . Hand slipped and caught the freshly sawn end of the tube, so stupid its
funny. Bled loads and mighty painful. My thumb is all bandaged up now and is making typing difficult

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
