Hoodlum Welding Gear is known for the most outrageous welding helmets
Hoodlum Welding Gear www.hoodlum-welding.com, known for the most outrageous welding helmets conceived and designed by Long Beach field welders, donated three helmets to Beach Cities Robotics Team 294.

Summer 2002 team member Marygrace Barron attended El Camino College welding class before her freshman year in high school. For the first time the team could do their own in-house welding because of Praxair donating supplies and the use of a TIG welder. Marygrace did all the welding for the team in Season 2003 while teaching co-members and students from other Southern
California Robotics' teams. The project was such a huge success that four more team members, including another female Veronica Newman, took the
college class during summer 2003, and will be helping new Captain Marygrace Barron with their Season 2004 robot.

Major sponsors for Beach Cities Robotics include Northrop Grumman Space Technology, Raytheon and Rent.com.

Speed Welding Helmets
Choosing the correct welding Helmet

Putting some thought into choosing a new speed welding helmet often poses a few questions, here are some points to make your buying decision easier.

Welding Lenses

Firstly the lens shade number is often seen as the higher the number the more protection your eyes have. In reality good quality welding lenses have screen filters that filter 100 percent of harmful ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) rays. So the eyes are protected regardless of the shade number. The number ( 10 being brighter 13 being darker) denotes the amount of brightness or darkness while welding. The particular lens chosen should be suited to the work and amperage of the work being welded. It should provide the best visibility for the operator so the weld puddle can be seen clearly.
