So true. One time I was rushing to fix a mover deck with a MIG. No gloves or helmet.

Anyway, a piece of slag few off and landed on my wedding band. I learned why gold is considered an excellent conductor. It got red hot instantly and I couldn't get it off due to the blister that formed on the finger.

So stupid and lesson learned.
