And any sparks and molten metal that finds their way into your glove 
(through that tiny hole) always end up between your finger and your 
ring - I have the scars to prove it!! You can't shake the sparks out 
even if you do the "welders" dance.  'Cause welders try, but they 
just can't dance! LOL

Make sure you have the correct welding wire for the job you want to 
do. Should be solid now that you bought and installed the gas kit (Is 
the liner and tip the correct size for your wire and is your wire the 
correct metallurgy for your job?)
