I am not unaware, as I have experienced vision problems from DC welding. Not from the UV, but from the current, which I did not expect. I very much appreciate good information, and reckon that is the fruit of good people when property cultured.
What I noticed was vision affects when touching steel the ground was attached to as I welded a large structure with significant DC amperage without gloves, so also contacting the stinger and being part of the circuit. I have undertaken to avoid being part of such circuits since I noticed it, and hope that is all that is necessary to avoid that affect or it's consequences going forward, as that's really all I can do besides not welding anymore.
I've always been amazed that DC has so little affect on us, while causing such dramatic physical effects on metal. It appears I underestimated the affects it had on me all along. It's still an amazing dichotomy to me, however.
I too labor when the weather allows. Fortunately, I am not digging a pond. My back definitely does not feel 30!
I agree about abundance. I think by spring we will either prove we can provide it, or lament our incompetence.
Thanks for the link!
