What do you guys do with your TIG torch when you need to set it down?

Here is one I made when I first got my TIG https://www.flickr.com/photos/24370911@N08/sets/72157629416237888/ It uses a magnet to hold it to the table.

Jeff - just went to the site and looked at yours ... you are an artist, it would appear .... did pretty kool job ... I can do the welding but I have no art in my blood .. music yes ... art: NO! Thanks though - am sure the other guys will also get a smile on their faces .... Thanks for sharing.
 
Doug, Tom at Oxtools shows a big torch holder he made with steel rod that is very easy to make.
My brother lived in Julian for a while. I noticed you are in Ramona.

Pat - is there a link or something I can refer to? Always interested in other folks' ideas.
I grew up in MO before I came to CA in mid-70's. Lived all over CA, but finally came to Ramona 10 years ago (moved here a month before the Cedar Fire). Been to Julian many, many times. Take care / Thx / Doug with Pugs
 
tickles when you accidentally hit the switch:roflmao:


Oh, I hate when that happens! The worst/dumbest move I ever pulled was having a long piece of filler rod touching the side of my neck then accidentally bump it with the electrode. Whoahhhh Baby.... that's a wake-up call.

Try working inside a large mixer tank to repair a defect in the stainless lining. There you are literally sitting on the work, when you accidentally hit the switch. For a brief moment you think you are in the clear until the hi-freq start ramps up and zaps you! ZOWIE!!!

I have to admit that your torch holder is truly unique. But nudity is not allowed on this site. Does she makes your wife jealous, too? :rofl:

He shows his holder along with a story about why putting a torch in your lap is bad :)
 
So far Viv has not noticed the missing hanger from her garden shed! :roflmao:
