need tip on how to hold pieces for TIG at odd angle - ?modeling clay?

[Sberry]

A piece of bent flat straps and a couple clamps woulde be simple, how many of these are there and are they critical? One of them, a latch for a pork smoker or some engineered part, dozens, hundreds etc for the space program? You say using now, is this part of a production process? This is a question that needs context??

It's a single hobby project, not production. i plan to make 6.
I'm a novice, and as such, am not able to fill in the details of your suggestion of bent flat straps and a couple of clamps. How are those to be arranged? thanks.
