Randy pointed us to this simple, homemade tube butt-welding jig over at Street Rodder magazine’s website as a great application for cheap-ass clamps like the ones we posted yesterday. (This particular project actually uses C-clamps instead of locking-pliers-type, but you get the idea: inexpensive clamps of all types are prime for welding into a jig.)
The article (link below) walks you through the whole process of building the jig complete with pictures of every step.
