breaks

how often should you have a break if you do mig welding all day

-----------------------------------------------

dan, thats a tough one. lately, where i work at my day job, we have been taking 5 minutes a day and stretching. wrists, shoulders, back , everything.

I have been surprised at how energized i feel after only 5 minutes. next big job i take on, i am going to try stretching every couple of hours.
maybe even every hour.

thanks,

Jody
