I bought a pair of safety goggles at HF. I was using them properly attached to my face, nice & snug while grinding the welds on my windshield posts.I AM THROWING THEM OUT IN THE GARBAGE. I just spent 2 hours at the ER getting metal pulled out of my eyeball. They have little holes in the sides & across the top, I assume for vent holes, and the metal grindings must have come through the vent holes and embedded into my right eye about 1 millimeter below my pupil.
Next will be a better pair of goggles AND a face shield. From now on any safety item will be from a reliable source for safety. I don't think I will trust the jack stands I got there anymore either. I can see that the stuff made in China isn't, in my opinion, worth my trust.

The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." - John Stuart Mill (1806 - 1873)
