Lessons I learned while welding today.

Hole in boot happens all the time , my worst was welding exhaust under my car and had a hole in my glove,i was covered in sweat and i almost dropped the rod on my face so i grabbed it with my other hand (the one with the hole) it grounded on my hand and lit me up.I was stuck under the car being shocked with no one around to help when i finally got loose i had 3rd degree burns on the web of my left thumb (it only took a month to heal over because every time i moved my hand it would reopen.I definately feel for you.
