A couple weeks ago, I was torching a Western Snow Plow mount of a 86 Ford I had sold (I took Delivery of the Power Wagon as partial trade for it) and I had on a T-shirt, and welding gloves. I went to burn the head of a bolt off, and had it red hot, I hit the Oxygen, and due to lack of long sleeves, when I did hit the Oxygen, a HUGE chunk of red hot molten metal went down my welding glove and put a nice burn on my arm about 3 inches above my wrist! Ouch! Lesson learned: Always wear long sleeves when using a flame wrench, or welder, or grinder.
