no it is not safe to breathe though we did for about 30 years then OSHA moved in but they still didn't catch em all but only when we had to cut or weld it drilling or punching holes not as badThe lamp is gorgeous!
Up in post#3 I see the table is plated. Looking online, I see the plating is zinc. Is that safe to breathe?
It must be nice to weld indoors. Too much fire hazard in the old open-front barn stall (photo in winter) that is my shop. And ten miles inland from the ocean, rust is an issue.Your set up is similar to mine, except I could only afford the Harbor Freight route. I also noticed that you had a concrete floor in your garage. Good for you.
My equipment is set up in an old indoor riding ring for horses. It comes with a leaky tin roof, walls with gaping holes, and a dirt floor. I cover my welding cart with my welding jacket. Over that I put an old plastic shower curtain that hangs down on all sides. I keep my helmet and gloves in an old chest freezer. Not pretty at all, but it works.
Good point. That's a leather apron (from HF) so I assume it would smoke and smell awful as the first stage of sparks in the pockets.would it be possible to turn your welding apron around back wards? that is a pretty sensitive area to catch on fire by catching sparks in them pockets and not notice for the length of a welding rod while welding.
