Welding arm pad

admin

Not sure how many of you use them. Very popular with pipeliners. I use them even  when I weld in heavy equipment or arc gouge Any ways ist a simple leather ones de for me by my Mom who is a master leather worker. They work great . Not welding but fun.
Reply:Nice leather work.  That's a beautiful burled slab it's sitting on as well.  What kind of wood is that?
Reply:Not my arm. My dads. His is a little smaller than mine.
Reply:I am not sure what the table is it belonged to my dads dad. I'll have to ask.
Reply:Almost too pretty to use. Glad you took a picture... the will only look this nice for a little while. Hope you thanked you Mom.
Reply:I did thank her. She builds all my leather goods from saddles to wallets. And my belts. She allways try's to refuse payment but I a Figure out some way . I tell her it's her business and she can't make stuff for free.

Reply:That's too pretty to use.  They do make an arm guard for bow hunting that should be fairly cheap and work fine.  The one that goes on you bow forearm to prevent a raspberry from the string snapping you.

Reply:I agree with FORHIRE and WELDERMIKE . Boy no way could I use that , amazing work. I would wear that to church !
Reply:She does very nice work!GravelThe difference between theory and practice is that in theory there is no difference.
Reply:That is beautiful work. I don't think I'd ever take it off! Although if that were my mom making it for me, she would probably make me an entire samurai suit for when I am gouging LOL!Last edited by Doug247; 07-17-2014 at 01:35 PM.Nothing Ever Got Done By Quitting, Never Give Up.

Reply:that is one beautiful arm guard. in regards to the wood my father worked for the forest service fighting fires he has a slab very similarthat was cut from a very large doug fir burl. about 50 in. in diameter. Where do you order regular arm protectors from no place to get them local by me.
Reply:Sbchp355Funny you mention forest service and fire fighting. My grandad was a smoke jumper and retired from fighting fires. My wife was a Hoshot for 5Years and my mom worked on a IA crew for 5 years. Fire is a big deal. Any way thanks for the compliments. I do not have a web page for her leather work. It's mostly one off custom work. I am trying to get her into the online side.....As for a place to order arm pads I don't know. Most welding supply's in the oil fields have the generic ones.  I allways get mine from myFamily...... Can ship one any place you like
