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?

hi guys

wanted to share a little job i did a few days ago when i fried the armature of a dremel tool
i was going to throw it in the garbage but upon closer view i thought i could use the collet, i remembered that the collet had inserts for 1,6 mm (1/16), 2,4mm (3/32) and 3,2mm (1/8) and i could use a tungsten vise for my ever growing collection of micro mini tungstens (emmm :roll: ) !
so i put it in the freezer for a day, notched some piece of metal, heated up the tip, hit it with a bfh and away
grabbed a short piece of al round stock, devised some contraption to drill the bar, a little massaging and here it is. hope you like it.

cheers
pete

Better to get some use from the parts than throw the whole thing in the trash bin.
