[1] Forms of welding have been around for centuries, but lucky for us, the art of joining pieces of metal together is no longer as complicated as heating and hammering by a blacksmith. However, more modern types of welding bring hazards to the job, like dangerous light emissions. That’s why Lincoln Electric [2] offers their new Viking StreetRod 2450 Welding Helmet. Not only does this piece of equipment protect your eyes from damage with its auto-darkening feature, it is also lightweight and comes with several lenses for use in a variety of areas.
