Welding Jacket

Kind of related. I bought a welding blanket. Good to have, if you need to protect something when welding. Beats the various old bed sheets I use to keep dust off stuff in the shop.

And they are ridiculously inexpensive.

In cold windy weather,putting one over the smoker help's maintain heat.

Some said the bib was too short.

That's code for their guts are too big.

Yep. I can smoke below 50 degrees with the fire blankets on the smoker. :licking:

Now, for summer welding work, I keep a denim shirt in the shop,, (the shirt is short sleeved)
and I use that shirt with these sleeves,,

I can take off the sleeves, and do other non-welding work.

When I use to ware those sleeves I had trouble keeping them to stay up so I bought these, clip one end on the sleeves the other on my T-shirt>>> Unisex Elastic Glove and Mitten Clips with Snowman Design Clip - 18 Colors | eBay

I use a leather vest. I've thought about sleeves but most of my welding is table work. Pretty easy to position myself or the project to avoid splatter.
I learned early on to wear work shoes. Burned a hole in my sneaker through my sock and left a nice BB size blister on my foot.
I think that was the first day with my new welder.

I have been wearing the Wrangler denim shirts for a long time. They burn up over time but they are comfortable and wear well for the past 50 yrs.
