Snap on welding helmet? :O

[jakecouling]

Was just wondering if anyone has ever had this mask, i thought it looked pretty cool to wind up the boys in the workshop and looks pretty decent to, just wondered if someone else had it and if it was any good?

Made in China and overpriced by the Snapon brand name in my opinion... seems a lot of money to pay to wind up the boy's, think I would invest in a known brand.

Overpriced, no adjustable shade, looks like a basic one in a silly hat.
Look on Fleabay there are heaps of them.

Yeah for £30, you'd be better off buying an Esab or Nederman eye tech, a good reliable, robust helmet. Not sure why people feel the need to put an ugly helmet on

Buy a decent one and put a Snap-On sticker on it; that's all Snap-On would be doing anyway and you save the large markup!

Unfortunately the snap on sticker costs more than the helmet

They ought to do a purple one so you could look a proper kn0b. Bid on a cheap one on ebay if you just want to get a laugh.
