this is the second i made, very super low cost spindle made from laser cut steel tig welded, three indipendent jaw for welding light things. The gear reducer is take from an old 12v door opener, very low speed

What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Looks pretty darn nice. Only one question- is it your laser cutter or someone else's? I want to get one someday if I have the money just to say I have one. That seems like it would be fun.
A student now but really want to weld everyday. Want to learn everything about everything. Want to become a knower of all and master of none.

Unfortunatly these machines are very expensive, the one who did this job is a professional laser cutter of a friend that have a Lightweight carpentry, it costs about $ 500,000, extremely accurate, with 3000X5000mm cutting area but the laser cutted pieces ar very cheap, just $50 for cutting a sheet aproximatelly of 1500X2000X1 mm with small piece like this including the cost of the metal (ridicolous).Farmwelding wrote:Looks pretty darn nice.

With this method i make some stuff like this special wrench made from 4 layer of steel tack together

Here a short video of how it's working made on my garage, non a very professional welding table , simple regolation of speed by a H0 train transformer with reverse switch, on the floor:
on the left there is the foot switch connected whit spindle motor (regulation of the speed with on/of on the pedal ), on the right the tig foot pedal, right hand tig torch, left hand filler rod and let start welding; and then say that welding aluminum is difficult, never try this
