I know we've all seen made and used a welding hand but done something a little different! I've threaded the end and used mig tips for the contact this way you can grind whatever shape you want on the end eg/ a groove to help holding small round profile or just flat if that's better all you do is unscrew and grind the tip to shape or grind a new mig tip |

Been thinking of making one of these.. are they really that versatile? I weld alot of small parts so usually stick em together with neodymium magnets. |

Yes there very handy and now I can profile the ends to suit the work profile it holds even better Make one they cost nothing |

Has come up before - I hope you aren't really grinding copper (at least not on a standard grinder). It can lead to wheel explosion. |
