and what happens when you wear flannel when welding.

i wasn't even welding, i walked away to go dunk the header in some water, and im like wtf, my leg is warm?

i look down to find my shirt on fire. dampened it out while trying to rip it off (tip: snap buttons only, not hole buttons will aid in this), got it out, still had it on, then realized that the melted plastic had caught my pants on fire. bout the size of a cd case where its red (first degree) and only one spot where hot molten plastic gave me 2nd degree burns

At least your header turned out fairly decent... Also, welding in 100% cotton is recommended.

That looks way too close to the *******. That could have been much worse.
