Needed to be able to get my tig cables off the ground and be able to swing it where I need it. Made this boom up.
Used some delrin for the washer/bushing. Maybe I will paint my cart this time, however I usually never paint my stuff cause I am always modifying it anyway.

Good idea there, I'm the same with cables trailing on the floor right across my entrance door as well, might just look into that.

Re: TIG torch boom for welding cart
Pretty awesome setup! I need to make me one of these for sure. I assume your boom is mounted on your tig cart? Mine would need to be as I move it around the shop from time to time. Is there any issues with the weight trying to tip the cart?

Re: TIG torch boom for welding cart
Yes welded to the tig cart. Third video shows this. No issues. I have a tig cooler mounted low and a Dynasty 300DX machine so it is heavy enough.Gamelord wrote:Pretty awesome setup!
