Or down the side of your shirt down your neck OOOOOOOUCH!
Its a good little machine the clarke 135te.It always gets top reviews.
My mates abused one of them for years and its still going strong.Its been
ran over on numerous occasions,survived a flood and im sure it was once kidnapped by Somali pirates but thats another story lol.
One thing you really need to remember when welding cars though is if you can,get a mate to 'fire watch' for you above where your welding.
also a fire extinguisher nearby is a wise move.
