    I had to buy these

    I'm not really sure why.

      They look Borgest to me.
      We did use similar goggles back in welding class for torch use.
      It was an American Dependant School in Germany though.

        If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

          Absolutely. My mom said I needed a sidecar.

          I was thinking more like 'borrowing' a locomotive, though.

            I wonder the color of the lens, and the size. I have one or two pairs of those, from WWII era, that belonged to my grandfather, with green lens. I wish I would have found the torch stuff as well though.

                  That would be a goggle googler.

                  I love the look—they remind me of the goggles Gene Wilder wore in Young Frankenstein.

                  I must have many pairs.

                    A Snoopy cap and scarf would really make the outfit.

                      yeah, but the scarf wouldn't be acceptable attire for the shop. BTW, those goggles look "uber" cool!
                      there's a solution to every problem.......you just have to be willing to find it.
