Milwaukee Portaband Stand from Scrap Aluminum

Milwaukee Portaband Stand from Scrap Aluminum

I made a stand for my Milwaukee portaband out of scrap aluminum and welded it using 115 volt power.

Building this stand was like making a fixture for a part.

You just have to figure out some touch points and ways for things to wedge into place.

I used scrap aluminum pieces and I decided to try welding it using 115 volt power so I had to pull a few tricks out of the bag like preheat, weld sequence, AC frequency setting, and welding beads on corners to add heat before making actual welds.

The PrimeWeld TIG225 did a really good job on 115 volt power but does even better when you use 230v.

Hi Jody,
I’ve been watching your videos for 10 years. I was sorry to hear about your health diagnosis. I went through the same thing 5 years ago. I had to get car-t treatment but so far I’m doing well in remission which I hope and pray works out the same for you.

Another prostate patient here. I’ve been watching and learning from you for years. I was a CC lab tech for several years, and always told students to watch your videos for greater insight. I hope your treatment is going to see you cancer free. I’m 82 in my twilight years, so It’s easier for me. Best wishes, and thanks for the years of education. Warmest regards, Ray

Hi Cuz,
Hadn’t watched any welding videos lately but for some reason when this one popped up on my email i decided to check it out. WOW Sorry to hear about you diagnosis but glad your doing better. My wifes niece went thru the same ordeal with the chemo treatments and the donor marrow, she has now been cancer free for over 5 years. I thought you might of moved to Ponce Inlet by the store address, we have a home just north of there in Port Orange. hope you find a donor soon and get on with the rest of your life cancer free.
