Still pretty cold. I've got a nice fire burning in the fireplace here.
I'm trying to think of ways to attach a neck guard to my welding helmet to avoid neck sunburn in the future.
I'm thinking of getting a piece of leather, like a piece of old welding glove, and pop riveting it to the bottom of the mask.

Go to a fabric store, they have Snaps and the tool to set them.
The fabric store might even have some leather, else try Tandy Leather.
Snaps would look more 'professional' than pop-rivets.
The easiest would be to super-glue the leather into place.

Pete,
For the bike I have neckwarmers that pull over my head and up tight under my chin.
The fleecy material would melt if hit by slag but it would protect from UV if you're not welding over your head or something like that...
Just an idea for an inexpensive, quick way out.

I'm wondering if a higher quality helmet than the one I was using might have more neck protection built in.
Some of the higher end Miller helmets look to come down farther than my current one does.
tm) drape for the front of your helmet I probably have some Nomex parachute protectors I can dig up.
