Breakaway mount for Duramax machine torch?

Post by Oldsarge »

Pulled the trigger today on a Duramax machine torch for my 1250 and bought a set of fine cut consumables at the same time. I'm wondering if anybody is using a breakaway torch holder for the Duramax..... What are you using, and thoughts about your setup? I'm thinking about making my own, but have questions about the mounting setup. Appreciate any feedback.... Getting closer to build time!

I use a breakaway mount, works great, also makes it easy to change consumables.

Wow! Very nice but kinda pricey.... Will try to make my own I think but will keep that one in mind.... Thanks for the link!

The Duramax is cheaper that a new torch that snaps off in the event of a collision....to me that makes it worth the price. Here is mine with a Duramax mini torch.
