- Found some scrap pieces of metal and figured I need to make me the 3rd hand to hold 2 pieces quick while tac welding them together. The second one is a Mig torch holder where I can hang the torch while not in use. I just recently bought a MIG welder and since I haven't any experience with welding I need to practice on things that are easy to make but also useful in the future.
Big thanks to all my patrons especially Sithis Michaelis!

Great video! I love how you made one tool and then used that to make another tool. I also like how you made, then fixed a mistake. Pretty cool.
A 'third arm' is very useful. That MIG-handle stand w/magnet is brilliant! 😁👍
great video. I've been welding for 3 years now and have never thought of something like this. thank you!
+Paulo Menezes Thank you Paulo!
No pontificating, just raw action and visual how-to! Nice!
Thank you!
@@Ollaris thank you goes to you. Very nice starter for newbie's new-found passion.
This is an amazing idea for work holding. I also really appreciate the music choice, I get so tired of heavy metal on every other welding video.
no
I know this is a 6 year old vid & you likely aren't seeing comments anymore. But just need to say using that old drill chuck as a weight is brilliant. I have multiple lengths, bends and end types and NOW I can do it with one base. Just chuck in the end I want or need at that moment. THANKS.
Glad you like the idea. I really appreciate it!
The chuck and spinning holder on the magnet are excellent takeaways!! Well done sir!
+Airn5475 Thank you very much!
GOTTA LOVE that swivel-action magnetic torch holder! & I just love how u immediately used your first welding project right into your second one! Smahts, i say, smahts!
Thank you very much!
I appreciate the inclusion of the mistake when drilling and ending up with a hole off center, and how to correct the mistake using a piece of copper to back the hole and fill it in, smooth out, and try again. Center point drills meant for lathes work really well for getting that starting point going after the center has been punched.
+woozleboy Exactly! And the funny thing that I have probably 2 of them. But I haven't thought to use them.... Thank you!
Love the no bullshit editing, so good you don't need to speak, like a well made film.
+George Griffiths Thanks a lot George! This is the nicest complement!
Very cool project! I was a bit of an adventurer when I started welding, and jumped straight into converting a boat trailer into a utility trailer
+Koshunae Thanks! Yes you were! I don't trust my knowledge that much!
I will admit I cheated a bit and had some previous experience way back in high school AG class. So I wasn't entirely new to welding, but really the only thing I knew was what a good and bad weld looked like!
+Koshunae I feel comfortable that way I don't know how a good one looks! LOL
The pilot hole thing was hilarious XD thanks for the video and ideas.
Ha! Thank you very much!
Nice basic gadgets. I liked your picks of music
I thank you! Once I found a workplace and get my welder this will be one of the first things I will do
Finally somebody on here doing a video that knows how to weld
Made one from an old drill chuck but used a bolt that screwed into the back and welded back legs onto it , the front jaws can hold all types of shaped holding rods and is fully adjustable , works great !
A very good idea, I need something like this. Thank you.
As a total newbie this is a fantastic video and I’ve just changed my chuck in my drill press. My welding table is collapsible to save space and I might use rare earth magnets for the mig holder. Thank you.
Thank you very much Mark! I’m glad you like it!
the music is spot on, great work.
+Rifat Ali Thank you very much!
great video and full respect for welding up the hole and starting again
Thank you very much!
Thats a lotta work for a torch holder. I just welded a short length of round pipe under the bench and pop the gun in there when I dont need it
That’s a good idea when and If your welder is always used on the same place.
Start welding classes in two days, this makes me super excited!
Awesome! I wish i had some lessons before i started!
Nice video, i like the idea with the drill chuck! People asking for narration are either weird or need to step away from power tools - the video speaks for itself
well done . I like the adjustable 3rd hand
+David Drescher Thank you very much!
Very nice and worthwhile projects !!
That 3 legged holder that you made first, you should mass produce them. Great Christmas present for just about anybody.
Great Ideas! Thanks... My first two projects right there.
Have fun!
might have to make the first one, it looks useful
It is!
That's pretty neat. I should have made one by now.
Yours things have a lot of quality, congratulations for yours ideas and yours videos, greeatings from Colombia
+Daniel Boom Thank you very much Daniel!
Saw this video quite a while ago. I made both. The torch holder is a great addition. Thank You for the ideas.
Thanks for watching!
I bought a brand new 600 dollar drill just to make this. It was worth every dime.
For what? 😳
Congratulations! Good job. I take this opportunity to congratulate you on good Christmas and a happy new year.
Thank you very much! Merry Christmas!
Killer groove!
I used a stick welder ( i think that is what it’s called) today for the first time. Definitely hard but it was fun!
very creative.. well done..
I'm not saying your idea of a third is bad, I think it's really great. However I would still prefer a welding magnet. Btw nice stand for the welder it's great.
+Medhavi Desai Thank you! I have a welding magnet but its not always the best for certain jobs and weird shapes.
man one of those sparks hit me in the eye!
Hahaha
That's why you should always wear you safety gear! Yes, always!
Amazing, you have a nice project and you explain it very well, Thousand Congratulations ... !! and go ahead with your ideas, greetings from Cochabamba, Bolivia.
Thank you very much!
Very nice thank you. Just happen to have and old drill chuck and a ton several ton of odd and end steel.
GOOD JOB AND HANDY STUFF
+randy lively Thanks a lot!
Dang. That was cool. Great video. You really did a great job on the editing too. Thank you.
Very nice dude
Awesome! Love the rotating torch hold.
+Iron Gordon Thanks Iron!
Refilling the hole... you are crazy :)
Thanks for showing
+Sascha LB it just wasn't in the middle. LOL. A man must do ........ Thanks Sascha!
I love how your description says you dont have experience but your welds are beautiful man I need to find a chuck now haha
Thanks! Any heavy metal object would do the job.
Going to make a couple for my everlast welder. Great idea.
Thanks a lot!
You nailed it! Such fantastic first projects for welding. Great job Sebastian!!😊👊
+Jedidiah Shultz Irish Craftsman Thanks Jedidiah!
Nice vice looks strong
Thanks! It is!
That was awesome thanks for the idea!!!!!!!!!!!
+htnttf1 Thank you! Glad you like it!
Cool third hand👋
Thank you Tricia!
Good video. Thanks for sharing!
Two really useful projects. Thanks.
Good video showing some basic tool functions. I personally just use a 90 degree tacking magnet for fitting and tack a short peace of 1 1/2" pipe to my work bench to hold the mig.
i enjoyed this very much its best to make your own things
Thanks! Yes it!
Great projects 👍👍
Very useful - cool ideas!
+Max Mustermann Thank you!
Nice!
Thanks!
Wow, good stuff. Thanks!
Why would anyone troll this? It is hands down a great thing and considering how many older drill motors that used to be powered by NiCd or NiMH battery packs that nobody is upgrading, I bet there are plenty of nice used 3/8 and 1/2" chucks. Of course the trick is gettting them off the shaft.. But hey that there is a video right there Ye haw! .
Thank you!
Arsene Wenger feels this beat!
I love to see this type of DIY'S... very useful for me to make those fabrication aid.... greetings from the Philippines and just talking a little deutch.....correct me if I am wrong....Danke Shern.
Thank you, Edgardo! But my German is acceptable at best. I think it goes like Dankeschön. ;) Greetings from Hungary!
Great video, thanks
Great ideas AND fantastic how you showed your mistakes and HOW to fix them!! That’s honesty, for sure.
And I just hate how the wandering drill bit can slap you down....welding up that hole just gave me nightmares all over again. What about when you go to the effort to drill the pilot hole and it still wanders ??? Go figure that one.....
Great vid. I’m subscribed.
+cognitor900 Thank you very much! The more expensive drill bits are sharpened to a spear tip instead of a chisel tip. They make it lot easier to get centered. Or use a step bit, I just forgotten that I have one LOL!
that sense of humor
+Jeli Kurniawan ;)
Nice bro,nice!
Great use of scrap! Love the ingenuity.👍
+Sonny Pittman Thank you Sonny!
Amazing effort
I need that holder! !
Pretty cool!!! I like your torch holder design!!
Thank you very much!
3nd holder is a good one but the first could easily be achieved using a welding magnet, they make holding iron at 90deg a snap.
Yes, i have some welding magnets too, but for more intricate work or small workpiece I like to use the 3rd hand.
Not everything you're welding is magnetic though
Awesome smart idea 💡 👍🏻
Thank you!
Sorry I'm late to the game here, but I just came across your video today. I just wanted to say that I enjoyed watching it tremendously. From the music to the comedic way you had to rework the hole you drilled in the base of the MIG stinger holder for the magnet. Well done. I look forward to going through and watching the rest of your stuff on here. Cheers.
Thank you very much and welcome!
Great vid. 👍
Great Vid!
Nice video....definitely I Will be making a holder after watching this!!
Well done 👍
Thanks!
Very well done, love the music and everything. Subbed.
Everythingisgoingtobealright Thank you! Welcome!
AAAAHHH I can’t bear to watch a vernier being used like that!
+David Fellows haha! I know someone would jump on that!!!!! Lol! Thats why i used my $3 one!!!
Ollari's phew. Fair enough saves setting square or height gauge. I did nearly suffer a heart attack though...
+David Fellows Sorry! But i got to do that!
I learned a lot but for now on I will come back for the MUSIC.
Thanks! I'm always happy when someone likes my music choice.
great vid, subbed!
Good job.
Absolutly great!
+Divierteknia Thank you!
Te lo dico, secondo me sei un genio! Bravo bravo bravo
For the mig holder I always just welded a piece of pipe or tube stock to the side of the table and stuck the tip in there and they double as points to clamp your ground to also... or just throw it on the table where it of course triggers itself off the corner or whatever piece of stock I threw it on. I like the use of the drill chuck to add weight to the third hand.
Yeah that could work too!
Would of made for a pretty boring video though... cut tube, weld to side of table, end of video, lol.
Yes it would in deed! LOL
Gotta give it to you grate idea
Thanks
Nicely made stand. I shall try this myself with my everlast welder. Thank you.
Thanks Julian!
Cooler Halter! 👏🏻👍🏻✅
Simple, yet effective. My favourite type of build. Nice.
+Cammie's Garage Mine too! Thank you very much!
Beautiful, good solution !!! 👍👌
+Family Flow thank yiu very much!
Beim anreissen mit der Schieblehre hab ich als Maschinenbauer Ohnmachtsanfälle bekommen. :0))
Haha! War pure Absicht! Das würde ich natürlich nicht mit einem Marken teil machen.
These are great.
Thanks Virginia!
The chuck tho....made alot but that's never crossed my mind....cool shit
A arte do fazer é o alimento para alma desocupada lhe traz sadisfacao em viver!
Nice vise!
:)
Sehr gute Idee👍
Yes the old mig gun fall off the bench routine, now I'll make me a gun holder, maybe a little different so's not to infringe on any copyrights laws. Think that small part holder be better if had a small V notch on the end. Nice video.
Thank you! Have fun!
My TIG 275 is all I need!
+Bob Bartos and probably some steel, and argon, and filler rod, and welding helmet, maybe some gloves... Ummm mostly just that! Thank you for watching! Have a nice day!
Ollari's and that's what real welders own!
+Bob Bartos I'm not a real welder and probably won't be. I'm just having fun making stuff.
Nice accessories for your first projects. Like I said before I’ve wanted to do a 3rd Hand build video for a while, just nothing unique enough to push me. This was a cool one. Great job on thinking outside the box with stuff you had in the box. 😉
+ManCraftingTM haha! Thank you Chad! Since then I thought about to make some brass or copper tips to get a better grounding and prevent it from sparking.
Perhaps A thick coating of brazing rod and then filing it to A proper profile would work. Or old soldering iron tips could be brazed on to the steel rod.
Nice project! Greetings from central Minnesota U.S.A.!!
Very Clever! And your vice is a true classic. Thanks
+George Goehl Thank you Sir!
Lol I myself just drilled another off-centre hole not 2hrs ago and was cursing myself yet again :-D
