Friends all welcome. We continue to share useful articles for everyone who develops manual arc welding alone. Interesting and creative profession, in which you can constantly to experiment, improve and facilitate their work. And today I want to share a small sovetom- Do not throw all the empty packs of electrodes-left one, it is useful to mark the pipe.
I had to trim and weld the old pipe, the first thing to do was to cut off all the rough ends of the tubes. This requires a smooth layout, and in haste, I decided to make this layout using an empty pack of electrodes, look what came of it.
Just picked up and removed the cellophane pack and straighten it, we got an excellent tool of thick paper for the application of markings on the surface of the pipe.
Just this wrap around a bundle of pipe connecting smoothly and superimposing on each other part of the bundle that is not tangent to the surface of the pipe. And just doing the layout of the pipe in a circle, stressing the marker tool in the edge of the pack.
Take a grinder and cut just for this markup, everything should work smoothly and accurately.
Here's a simple, kopek and accurate tool for marking round pipe is obtained from an empty pack of electrodes, which we wanted to throw!
