Default special eyewear not for tig

Tig hats, like gas welding headgear, can be improved for better vision - if y'all are creative.
This is Charlie Rosa, who at 81 was building his Rattle A speedster boattail. His vision needed +5 correction, so he made that happen. He was a real old school craftsman, trained in SF doing Victorian woodwork with the old Euro guys in the 1950's. I sure do miss his enthusiastic joyful energy.
