[AT] TIG welding--a little OT

[Richard Fink Sr]

I have seen this discuss a little. What about the ones that there eyes are 
not just what they use to be. I use a halogen light when practical because 
my eye site is not what it use to be, I would like a auto darkening helmet 
but my eyes don't??????????????????? $50.00 or $400.00 tell me more
