When you're tacking sheetmetal together you do a little weld here, a little
over there, a little in the middle, back over here, back over there, some
farther along. Its nice to be able to reposition...
But what I was really comparing it to was the crappy mask they give you that
you have to hold with one hand while you try to work. A real mask is so much
better.

Why's that? Just because it's faster than flipping up and down an
ordinary
mask to inspect your work?
(Not trying to argue, just about to start welding myself and interested
in
getting off on the right foot... although, having seen some of my
soldering
handiwork, Jim may feel free to point out there's no right foot for me
where
fire and metal are involved.)
