I recently had a heart pace maker and defibelator, I was advised that if I do any welding to buy a good apron and long sleeved gloves. What would you

I wouldn't listen to my doctor but, it would probably be best to do so. This is a great leather and with a set of arm leathers, it would do well for slag. I use it for blacksmith work.

We don't have any application here with reference to the pacemaker and defibrillator. However, it is very important that you protect your exposed skin. If you are working overhead, we would suggest a leather jacket and hat to protect your upper body. However, if you are welding on a table or something, this apron is wonderful to protect you, and yes, definitely a good pair of long sleeved gloves to prevent any of your skin from becoming sunburned in appearance. This Hobart apron I bought my husband is excellent quality. God bless you and good health!!

Ok Gaius Paynter I have been using this welder for two years and during that time it took a pretty good beating, I sometime weld whole day with it, it never overheat , in my view it's well wrote the money.

Funny you ask I was welding when I had it but always kept it in my pocket I never had any problems with it but i was never bringing it out while I was welding either, I can't imagine it would stand up very well to a big piece of slag tho since it's mostly plastic

The gloves will not slip because you velcor them around your wrist. If your HRM has to be worn at a specific place on the wrist it my be uncomfortable to place it under the Velcro since it's tight around the arm.

buy the right plug and put it on the welder cord. I run mine out of a dryer outlet. As long as you have 220-230 volts and 30 or more amps you are in good shape.

Yes, The operator should have welding experience. Use straight argon shielding gas, correct filler rod and tungsten..

With my hand size, I can wear an XL in mechanics gloves and they fit perfect. Because of my motorcycle, I ordered XXL thinking I'd need some room to wear warm gloves underneath the gauntlets, but I think sizing already took that thought into consideration. They are a bit too big, if I had got XL I probably would've been better off. I'd say, go with the same size as a pair of work gloves you can wear comfortably. They fit like supple welding gloves-high flexibility. They are also awesome for Darth Vader cosplay, haha

NorthShore Care Supply so far has real Dynarex gloves. Diagnostics Direct had some house brand.

You'd need to buy an air torch. Check out Mr, TIG and Welding Tips and Tricks on YouTube for good info and suggestions.

NO. Do not buy the welder you will be taken for your money because the company does not exist. We bought one the rectifier blue and I got chewed out by the supposed customer representative. To give you an example when we finally Mad Our grievance we had to go through Amazon to get the customer service representative. Not to mention the item I ordered was not the items we received. Please do yourself a favor and do not buy this welder. The phone number that is listed on their instruction manual is also to a Adult hotline

I did some jewelry making with silver solder before in school, but we used torches, not a solder gun. We used natural gas torches, but you could do it with a propane one. I think you would have a better time if you bought a torch and some other equipment to do this kind of work. Don't forget your protective gear too! (faceshield, ventilation, etc)

That will be dependent on your needle, as far as the machine itself, the best investment we have made with amazon, we sew clothing, canvas bags, sheets and drapes, and just about anything friends of ours can tear, will handle everything from silks to denim no problem, if you want to stich leather get the right needle, watch your speed and go

I think an apron would be easier than what I made (lunch bags). Just make sure you use a Teflon presser foot because it might stick to a metal foot.

When I get into the shop I'll check the manual for you. Whatever the duty cycle may be, I can attest to the fact that this little unit has never crapped out on me. I use this welder every day and I've never had a problem with it. My welding teacher originally recommended this type to me.

Yes I wear the clear version with my welding hood everyday,y advice would be to put hard hat on first then glasses so the end don't get caught under head gear and stab into your head. I would deffinatly use these for your situation!
