Default Welding Lenses

Try Achor Freight or welders supply business and look for electric welding lenses

I tried to order them from Lowes and the web-site says that they are only available at the store and to call them to see if they are in at their local store.

My local library here in Jersey is giving them away - they will also stream the eclipse in their community room!

Don't have eclipse glasses? Make a pinhole projector to view the Great American Eclipse
It will happen around my nap time, so should be nice and dark for sleeping.

paper reported glasses being order on amazon fake.

I want to see this solar event because while it is likely I will be around for another 100 years, I still do not want to leave it to chance on the next.
