Some things to bring with you for the class

-Bring a pair of old cotton tube socks. We will be cutting off the end and using them as sleeves to help keep the heat away.
-If you have UV rated safety glasses bring them, sunglasses don't count, #3 welding glasses will work as well. If not, eye protection will be provided for
