Dear Susan & all,

    When I first started jewelry making I used the standard
    Prestolite Acetylene & air torch. I did not use protective
    goggles or glasses when soldering. When melting I used the
    goggles. At school we have oxygen & natural gas. Again for
    soldering I don't use protective goggles but when melting we
    always wear them. At my own shop we use oxygen & propane. Again
    no goggles for soldering but goggles for melting. 

    When using oxygen and acetylene I would wear goggles for all
    uses; soldering and melting. 

    The very best information I have seen on this is the Soldering
    tape from Rio Grande. They give a more detailed explanation. And
    also a great comparison of torch uses. 

Best Regards,

TR the Teacher & Student
