Today i was welding stainless fillet welds and when i was tacking up a tab to hold it in the clamp i did this....
I was rolling the cup off of it to stop the flame as its a lift arc tig and rolled it right over where my hand was. Luckily i can barely even feel it from i guess getting the nerves. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES! I get burned all the time from stick welding or just laying some body part into hot metal but this was probably the worst i've actually inflicted on myself.
Been tig welding 6" pipe in class too. This is two stringers before i put the cap on it
