Every one I've handled was stiff, and the few I've bought never did soften up enough after washing a few times. I'd like to find a bigger option than the average kerchief.

I did hundreds of trap mods with an arc welder but when I got my wire feed I could have kicked myself for not getting one sooner. And it got even better when I upgraded to gas shielded wire feed welding. I try to keep plenty of wire on hand so I don't have to ever use whats left of a roll of shielded wire. And I have a small back up bottle of argon/CO2 to get me by if my big tank runs out. I'm 40 miles from the nearest refill on argon/CO2 so running out can be a major inconvenience. Especially when I'm just an hour from finishing a project. X3, two bottles of Argon always, and at least 20# of extra wire. Keep your boots dry.
