Do not fry bacon while naked. It will lead to tragi-comic consequences.:(

Why bacon?

hot grease from the bacon has a habit of flying all over the place

Yeah, had a taste of that about 45 minutes ago... welding in your shorts is a bad idea, as well. Wouldn't try that naked.

I burnt a crater into one knuckle welding a few weeks ago- definitely DO NOT weld naked.

That said- I can't complain because I hate welding with gloves on, so I don't.

Small price to pay for 'forging' steel in your own garage, I sezs.

I can't weld without gloves... the damn UV just effs me right up. I hate the gloves... especially since I have super cheap gloves and giant hands.

Just got done my latest welding project... four pieces of flat iron into a square tube. Its a hitch for a lawn trailer I'm slapping together. I desperately need to start using an inert gas.

Splatter Splatter! Add metal... grind 90% of it all off. :-(
