i wear a welding glove on my left hand(tong hand) because i prefer to work with short tongs and they tend to heat up faster than the longer ones. ive had large pieces of scale go in the top of the glove many many many times. just ask moya034... he can hear me holler from across the yard every time.

after forging, i usually spend 5 minutes or so picking out the scale that has burned into the skin on my hands and forearms
