OK, I've been using my autodarkening welding helmet for my plasma cutting
since I got the cutter. It works OK, but I can't see any lines that I
make to great cuts.
So I watched a video on line and the guy was only using sunglasses. So I
got a see of 100% UV protection sunglasses eye protection (not consumer
glasses, but actual eye goggles.) They were even in the welding section.
Now when I use them for plasma cutting, I can see great. The only
problem, my eyes seem to feel like they are getting a little "snow
blinded' when I'm done cutting.
So my questions are...
What should I be using for plasma cutting?
Can I still use the glasses without any ill effects?
Is there a better way to mark the pieces to be cut so I can see them with
my welding helmet?
Thanks!
