Jig, third hand, whatCha-ma-Call-it

admin

I threw together this thirdhand that rotates in the middle my welding table using angle iron and a magnet. It works well, probably not the best way of doing it but it works for me.Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkMiller Bobcat 250Syncrowave  200Millermatic 252Spoolmatic 30ASpectrum 625 X-TremeMaxstar 150SVictor O/A torchesDewalt angle grindersWelded on/off for over 40 years.

Reply:You gotta make things easy . I bought these Bessey magnets that are doubled up and come in handy too. http://www.amazon.com/Bessey-WMS-4-M...ef=pd_sim_hi_2Here's another cute set, I don't have these. http://store.cyberweld.com/sthamagta...rce=productads
Reply:I like the idea, but I have issues with my filler rod wandering toward the magnet.  Probably works perfect if you're just tacking.  Thanks for sharing!-AaronJet 17.5" Drill Press1942 South Bend 16x84 Lathe1980s Miller 320A / BP --- 2013 Power Mig 2562012 Jet 7x12 Horizontal BandsawVictor O/A Setup
