Whats the best clothing to weld in ??

I have been using denim for years and it sometimes gets a little hot in the summer.

Ware (SP ??) a t-shirt to soak up the sweat, and get the shirt a couple of sizes larger than you normaly ware, so it will sort of hang on you.

UG!

It seems the close proximity of vital body parts and the severity of any burns would discourage you from sticking a torch down your jeans or a MIG tip under your t-shirt! But what do I know?

I've seen crazier pursuits on this web-site... like guys who actually continue to farm year after year, after year, after year.... 8^)

Carhart 10oz ? unlined bibs can't be beat as they save your cloths form both welding and grinding and take the heat well. For good movement order them 2" larger in the chest size and 2" shorter in the inseam. This keeps you from walking on the bib pant cuff when loaded with tools in the pockets. Gempler has a sale every year and I load up, about $44eh delivered.

Wrangler makes a lite blue (only color) snap long sleave western shirt thats easy to open when you get a "hot" one down the chest. I never ware a button shirt as it's too slow to open and I rip the buttons off. A Cotton mix but doesn't stick to the skin. Wal-mart about $16eh.

Theres also a dark blue cotton snaps made by ? (CRS) long sleave that great for winter time. Heavy cotton and to hot for summer time for me.

Never all rayon, nylon or polyester as stated, as you get burnt twice, once from the hot dingle berry and once from the material.
