Is it practical to use a center pivot magnet for cutting circles with an oxy acetylene torch??
Reply:my Kioke handy auto torch has a magnetic holder for the pivot when cutting large circles.

Reply:No............ Learn to layout and freehand circles.The day will come when there is no "center" to set up your magnet. Visualize cutting the outside circumference of a doughnut that has already had the doughnut hole cut out.HoboLincoln SA200's... at least 15 - 20. They come and go. Growing partial to the "Short Hoods" in my old age. Last count on Short Hoods was 13 in possession.
Reply:yes but apparently its also a good idea to start threads to drum up interest in your own product. sneaky Grey area plugola.Vantage 500's LN-25's, VI-400's, cobramatics, Miller migs, synch 350 LX, Powcon inverters, XMT's, 250 Ton Acurrpress 12' brake, 1/4" 10' Atlantic shear,Koikie plasma table W/ esab plasmas. marvel & hyd-mech saws, pirrana & metal muncher punches.
Reply:Yes it is. If you think you can freehand a circle out as good as a holder can you are nuts.But most guys can build one. |
