  1. I am a hobby welder and have considered getting an economy auto darkening helmet from Norther Tool. I have been concerned about safety though. I know that my fixed shade helmet works if I have it lowered, I am not sure about how to interpret the switching speed numbers, like what is too slow. The article had some information but not quite enough for me.
  2. Found this on a google search. Home Page It looks like they are still made unless that is a very old link.

    Vasco Wear

    This is a little seax I made out of a Vascomax rod. In this size it was not hard to forge. I heated and air quenched it. I dont remember the specifics now. It held an edge pretty well. I didnt test it otherwise so I dont really know if it is a good alloy or not. I think it is not actually a steel.
  4. Check out this site: Tale of the Tatara : Types of Iron Sand
