Need opinions on a custom hood idea.
I've been using speedglas for as long as I can remember, but I hate the way modern hoods pull on your head and yank it forward, especially heavy ones like papr hoods. I've recently tried a fully enclosed welding hood that evenly distributes it weight around your head(It's on one of my other posts) and I loved it for the most part, but it was too heavy for starters; it also lacked a Panoramic view, which is a feature I would like to have. Finding nothing on the market, I think I'm left to design my own. However, I'm having issues finding a helmet that would fully encase my head, that would be up to workplace standards, anyone have any ideas? And sure, safety this, safety that, I work in a garage for myself. No osha here. I'd appreciate any opinions and pointers, thanks in advance.
