if u are going to do this for a living and just starting out. id go with a automatic lens sure they flash once in a while but get a nexjen lens (by jackson) they come in 4"and 2" i like the 4" myself it comes w torch and grind settings. good for strucual welding oh your can adjust your shades for welding too 9-13

yea, the auto tinting mask do make a world of difference, but you can get a good for 40 or 50 bucks. and they do really help

Actually for the sake of a few extra dollars you can purchase an auto tinting mask so that even when the mask is over your face you can see everything and once the ark happens it automatically tints for you.

No, you cannot see a thing, although, once you have an arc, you will be able to see the work piece very clearly, because it will make so much light, hence putting the mask on in the first place. I usually have my rod very close to the work piece before I have the machine on so that I can know where it is immediately.
