Not the most beautiful welding, but it stuck...

It would stay in place by locking the thread up surely?Last edited by Steellearning; 07-25-2013, 08:54 AM.

Re: IT without welding?
Just in case you find someone who can weld for you this is how I did mine.
I have a small hobby welder and no experience with welding but I made it stick

Re: IT without welding?
At first I was thinking about doing something like this...
But I did have mine welded.

jimkramer
another method is to use a length of threaded rod with a couple of nuts, adjustable and strong!
Cheers.

Re: IT without welding?
Buy 2 part epoxy let it sit over night and your good either 3m duramix or sem all available just as strong they sell small tubes

Anyplace where welding can't be replaced with bolts it can be with JB weld.

IT without welding?
I want to make an IT, but don't have a welder. I have made a very crude one out of a door hinge, wood strips (for the arm) and a door bracket. Curious if there's anything out there that's better. How'd you make yours if you didn't weld? A link to your build would be great.Tags: None
