Old timer warned me about those cheap welding hoods
A 40-year boilermaker named Hank told me to never buy a hood under $100, and I ignored him. My $50 special gave out mid-weld last Thursday and now I've got a nasty flash burn. Anybody else learn that lesson the hard way?

Yeah I used to argue cheap hoods were fine. Not anymore, ouch.

Agree completely @emmajackson, same thing happened to me last winter with a cheap hoodie from a random online store. First wash and the whole thing shrunk like two sizes, plus the zipper broke after a week. Never again, learned that lesson the hard way.
