A lot of guy struggle with welding jhooks and nail swivels. I make jigs to deal with these problems. Just thought I would post a pic and it might help somebody.

Just curious (I am NOT bashing in ANY way). Is this jig simply to hold all of the parts so one can weld them? If so, I like it!

Excellent, i like it.
I use a metal grate but that will be much better.
Do you spray it with no splatter spray or not?


Let me sugar coat this

What fun is that? It's make it much more difficult to get your j-hook welded properly to the swivel. laugh

Yep just a third hand to hold everything in place to be welded. Don’t spray and it shows. I probably should but every so often I’ll shine it up with a flap disk.

ADC, mom told me to work smarter not harder. Only took me 50 years and a wrecked shoulder to take that advise. Lol
