      That's beautiful! I have a piece of 1/8" thick steel, about 2" x 5" with two holes drilled in it that I bolt to the rear housing and clamp in the vise. Yours looks way more useful

        Who ever taught you how to tig weld should be rewarded! Nice work!
        There's always something new to learn.

              this one should have no problem bolting up to a 12 bolt. i would sell them but there probably wouldnt be much of a market for them

                  i cut these pieces with a band saw, but if i did sell them i would have cut them some other way. it takes way too long to cut this stuff out by hand.

                          I have one that you can slide the front out and put a flate plate on a tube in for a head fixture and a bench vice you name it makes it nice for welding stuff
