Some good points for fledgling welders, but one thing I never see mentioned when giving tips....

Ventilate your work area! Welding fumes can be bad for your health. Excessive exposure can cause a type of parkinson disease.

Work upwind of the welding fumes if outside, and if inside and you dont have a respirator us a small fan to suck the fumes away from you.
