Being somewhat of a tool stickbeak, I enjoy seeing what gizmos,tools and equipment people have thought up to improve their welding.
My welding often includes fiddly bits that are often dwarfed by the outright size of the welding earth return clamp and cable, making them difficult to position/and blocking access to weld.
I have made a manual operated positioner years ago so the fiddly bits are up high. The extension cable idea came to me after problems setting up small pieces to weld and having trouble with the large A section earth clamp.
The unit is very quick to attach and detach with a couple of pair of 5"cheapy vice clamps I had, attached at each end.The cable was the smallest cross section available at the welding supply shop.
Connectors were made from copper tube and connected to a 6mm S/Steel bolt welded to the vice clamps.
What item/s have you created to to make the welding process a bit easier for you.
