Welders eye

Welders eye, originally uploaded by PHP-CODER/WELDER.

Every craftsman no matter
what his craft, when he hit's a level
of mastery that only comes with time
spent DOING a thing...
eventualy ones body accepts damage
and in healing tries to protect against further damage.

for keymakers - it's chewed up fingertips
for carpenters is splinters
welder gets the light damaged eyes

10 years ago i was teaching welding at a notable
school that shall remain nameless..
Last year was the last time i picked up a torch ( 05 actually)
