i had flash burn a few years back,

i ended up nailing like 6 blankets to the window so there wasn't any light, and stuffing a bunch under the door,

i turned my T.V on and turned the brightness down to like ...1 or 2 ...my eyes had to adjust to see the t.v.....took like and hour,

took like 3 days....i only came out at night if all the lights were turned off,

...non-mask wearing stick welding FTW !! :1 after that, i bought a freakin welding hood, and stoped welding...pretty much alltogether

tig is the worst. nothing to obscure the light. (no smoke, you see the arc directly since the torch is out of the way).
