Blanco Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I had to look up what a 'welding positioner' was before replying....... I was going to recommend Lidl's little ninety degree magnet thingy's but then the 240v bit made me Wonder if I was missing something;...... and I was. I wonder whether its the sort of thing you get better and cheaper as old 3 phase stuff and get a little (velly cheap) phase converter?

Nigelw Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Depending on exactly what sort of things you are looking to do with it, why not build one? When I used to work in earth moving the welder had a couple of motorized ones he made for using when rebuilding and hard facing, he also built one for me for when I was building up bucket teeth for the 365 CAT in the rock quarry, old teeth with scammel leaf springs cut and welded on, got interesting to handle them after a few passes circa 200A so he built me a positioner I could rotate and pin at 45° increments. Made building up teeth faster and safer, not to mention a heck of a lot more comfortable too. Just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
