- In this video I will be showing you how I built a cordless 20v Dewalt powered rotary welding turntable.
I built this to assist me in making more consistent and professional welds on pipe and flange fittings.
Here is a list of all the parts that I used to make this cordless welding positioner.
4” Rotary table that I used

Nice build! Very clever and well built.
Hi Tim! Thank you for your kind words! I’ve watched your channel quite a few times over the years and always enjoy your content. Cheers! 😊👍Don
Probably the best build yet. This has alot of applications besides welding
Hi Jon,thanks for your nice comment! Yes you are right. I use it all the time as a powered rotary table on my milling machine. The gear motor has plenty of power to do most cuts as long as I don’t take heavy cuts. 👍😁
The cordless design is awesome. Way to go! Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏🏼😊
Thank you!🙏😊
Hey - I've been looking at your channel since you started it, and have enjoy the content. Thank-you for all the information and the details. I do like the TURNTABLE BUILD. Its nice and simple and does a great job by the looks of it. I look forward to your next build. Have a good one.
Hi Gary! Thank you for your kind comments! I really appreciate them. I’ve got a bunch of cool projects in the works right now. Collecting all my parts for a few dewalt powered track torch for plasma and cutting torch. Thanks again for the positive feedback!😊🙏
Amazing idea, thanks for sharing this!!
You are very welcome, Matias! Glad you liked it and thank you for your nice comment!🙏😊
@@PranaTech where do you got the 6inch plate?
It is a faceplate for a craftsman wood lathe. I found it on eBay.👍😊
I’ve subscribed and look forward reviewing the rest of your content. Very clever use of many off-the-shelf parts. Thanks for all the details and links. I’m placing orders now. How did you ground the table while it was turning? Does it just ground through the base and all the bearings?
Hi Joel! Thanks for the great comment! Yes, because everything is cast iron and steel with the aluminum base, I’ve had no problem with flow of electricity through the assembly. I know a lot of guys put a copper grounding strap or plunger to the table, but I know a lot of guys using rotary tables for positioners and none of them have had any problems so I just went with the simple design. 😊👍
I like the way this project came together! I've been planning something similar to this and wondered how you handled grounding? I didn't want to run power through the bearings. Also building a TIG cooler similar to yours, and have a 68 fj40 that I've considered diesel swapping. I'd be interested in the 4bd1 performance/mpg.
Hi Chad, I didn’t add a grounding strap inside so yes the current is going through the bearings on this. It hasn’t been a problem yet and I’ve welded a lot of stuff on it and no negative side effects as of yet. The diesel swap was a lot of work but worth it to me. It got between 24-28 mpg depending on my how much I pushed it. It was way more powerful than a 2F engine and lots of fun to drive. 😊👍
Liking all your videos Don. Ordering the parts for this project. What is the model of the Foot switch?
Hi John! Thanks for your kind comment! Here is the link to the pedal I used. ssccontrols.com/product/s420-1002-s-series-light-duty-foot-switch-front-hinge/ I thought I put it in the list but I see I forgot to add it. Let me know if you have any questions when you get to building it. 😊👍Don
I love this idea to use the cordless batteries and a reasonable rotary positioned. Can you add the link for the foot switch you used? Is this momentary or latching? Thank you again!!!

Could you possibly go over the wiring or draw a diagram? Thanks
Hi Seth, sorry for the delay. I’ve been gone welding for a couple days. Ok, so the wiring is pretty simple. The positive and negative leads from the Dewalt battery holder go directly into the input side of the speed controller. Positive and negative wires come out of the controller and this is where I interrupted the positive wire with the foot switch. The reversing toggle switch has six poles The negative wire goes directly to one of the center poles of the reversing toggle switch and the output wire from the foot switch which is the positive wire goes to the other pole on the center of the reversing toggle switch. You now need to attach two sets of wires to the opposite ends or outputs of the reversing toggle switch. You then combine opposite corner wires together so the four wires are now two and these two can now attach to the input wires for the drive motor. The wires coming from the opposite corners of the toggle switch is how the polarity switches. I hope this makes sense. If not, feel free to ask me anything anytime. I’m always happy to help😁👍
Yes makes perfect sense thanks a lot. My concern was mostly where to wire in the foot pedal switch. I have all the pieces ordered to start building one of my own. Thanks for sharing this info it’s greatly appreciated!
Hi Seth. I’m glad to see you are building one.👍 another guy sent me a link to his finished on instagram. instagram.com/reel/CjbSLSSpIOg/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= I think his came out even better than mine! 😁
Neat idea
Thank you! 👍😁
Don, nice job! About $220 in parts?
Hi Edwin! Yes, that’s about right. I was just a little under $200 when I bought all the parts, but everything has gone up so much in the past few months!🤪👍
rad
Thanks😊
Hey whats up. Do you have an email I could reach out to you? Have a few questions. Thanks
Hi there! Yes, my email is pranateq@gmail.com Just let me know what questions you have and I’ll be happy to help.😁👍Don
