I made this to set on my table to keep my 18" tig filler rods in after i cut them in half from 36".
It is a 1/4" base plate, with (2) 2.5" tubing side by side.
Base plate is 6.5" x 4".
It was tig welded with my Sync 200. Used 1/16" 309L filler. 3/32" tungsten (1.5% Lanthanated)
I should of came up with a better design.. looks kinda funny.. hahahaaa

I don't think it looks funny at all. You did a much better job with the welds than I would have done.

Use a lot of filler, huh?

2 1/2" pipe will hold "A LOT".
Nice job, regardless.

Look through the projects board here and I'm sure you'll find quite a few ideas to use.
