As a rule of thumb, start with a shade that is too dark, then go to a lighter shade which gives sufficient  
view of the weld zone without going below the minimum. In oxyfuel gas welding or cutting where the torch  
produces a high yellow light, it is desirable to use a filter lens that absorbs the yellow or sodium line the  
visible light of the (spectrum) operation
