Brazing Platinum Without goggles Mod
I can’t stand wearing goggles, or any other kind of eye wear while working at the bench. That fact led me to think of something I learned while attending the Revere Academy. With a lens from some welding goggles and a paper clip you can rig up the little device seen below. Just slide it down toward the gas adjustment valves when not in use, and toward the nozzle when in use, and you have yourself a non intrusive welding eye shield.
If you work in multiple locations like myself, you understand the dynamic of not being able to (or wanting to) have a duplicate of every one of your tools at each location. There just happen to be a pair of dark lenses at 2nd location I work at, and after months of holding one of them in my hand while brazing, it finally dawned on me what I had learned at the academy. I learn by seeing things, so check out the pics
