I usually weld during the day, but last night I had some pieces to weld, so I cranked up the MIG welder.
The shop was mostly dark, or at least a lot darker than daylight.
I did very little 'no helmet' welding - basically eight fast spot welds to hod everything in place. I had my head turned away to the right. I noticed this morning I had quite a red left side of my face.
I wouldn't have expected this, and I wonder if the effect of the rays is worsened by taking place in the dark as opposed to the light?
