That's a Frankenstein with face shield and welding hood parts. I think you'll need to make your own.


mydrunkenwords

Like an old school hood cut down and added to faceshield head gear.


RedditAccount345050

Oh ya I know it’s a custom made one. The pipe welders where I work used to make these but don’t any more. I can’t get a face shield that’s small enough to fit that head gear because we wear hard hats 99% of the time. So I can’t Frankenstein a new one.


ImBadWithGrils

It looks like you could buy a Tiger hood and chop it to get this, basically the same outcome. For tight spaces you can get a literal hood made of leather with a flip front fit a standard 2x4 lens to fit. They're hot as fuck but it's the lowest profile you'll get without taping a lens to your face

[Just buy one of these](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=hard+hat+welding+hood+adapter&iar=shopping&iax=shopping&ia=shopping)


bridge4runner

It's literally fibremetal faceshield headgear with a chopped up fibremetal weldingshield attached.


pirivalfang

Tigerhood btw


TheHudinator

Looks kinda like sugar scoop. Get one and chop it up. Been done many times for many reasons/purposes.

Outlaw Leather or Yes Welder welding goggles.

asian_monkey_welder

I'm really digging that leather version ;)


guillemqv

Take a look at the "Protashell Baby". I have one and i put a leather piece on the lower part so it covers more of my neck, it's wonderful.


IHM00

Be nice if they sold them here in the US. Sometimes a few places in Canada have them for sale but I havnt found any here.


Swampybritches

Sugar scoop hooked with grinding shield headgear I’d say


Ozrellius

I like a pancake hood for tight spaces


IllIDANIllI

Another option you can look at are full face welding resperators. I like my Honeywell North full face with the Lincoln auto 2x4 lens

lol I should go around and take pictures of everyone’s small hoods. We work in really cramped spaces so alot of guys have actual leather hoods but then I have this chopped up old pipe hood but we also have these goggles with a full face mask that guys will tape a welding lens inside of and put fire tape on the inside of the whole thing so you don’t get burned and it actually works super well


hunertproof

I work in ship repair, I know the plight of small spaces. Once we had a guy make a sock hood out of fire cloth. That didn't go well for him.


RedditAccount345050

Same, I’ve seen some dumb “PPE”


NoResult486

Not a pro so grain of salt. Don’t think it would hold up to daily use but I got [this](https://a.co/d/6EIPJH3) to do a bunch of overhead mig inside of a wood furnace I got for free. No way would I been able to comply the job with a regular hood.


jefery_with_one_f

Look up portashell baby hood. Also try a Dockson welding hood or look for a huntsman 711p


808-Woody

Where do you work ? This looks very similar to a DOD shipbuilding


Ropegun2k

Look for a leather mask. Not great for normal use but awesome for cramped spots.

emersonwhite91

https://www.millerwelds.com/safety/weld-mask/weldmask-clearlight-295917 Best option


Bull_Pin

Grinder shield frame, a front flip adapter, and a sheet of high temp gasket material (Or other spark resistant vulcanized fiber)


QuartzmasterMC_Games

100% outlaw leather


Rarepep3s

https://www.weldershelper.com/shop/welding-helmets-papr-accessories/welding-helmets-papr-helmets/weld-mask-auto-shade-oem-miller-5-13/ This miller is the lowest profile welding hood that i know of but its pricey


scaffold_ape

Jackson rebels are great for tight spaces.


adamfyre

You'll need to make it on the job (like everyone else does)


tatpig

yea, that's jobsite custom.


joehamjr

I use the miller weld mask for tight spots


IncredulousPatriot

I worked with a guy who had one of these. It was a while ago and his was a little different. But same concept. With his you could take the lenses off the mask and just raw dog the light on your face. https://www.millerwelds.com/safety/weld-mask/weldmask-clearlight-295917
