of 1x1x14" sq tube and 2" angle 14" long cut and spaced 1" apart, I also added a removable bottom piece for when I am not using a vise. I used a 4x14 scrap plate and 2 1x1x4" spaced 1" apart to drop the jig into when just using a vise.
All I have to do now is come up with a better clamping idea to hold the pieces in place.
Worked pretty good last night except for splatter. I read to use some kind of spray to stop splatter or reduce it. I do not remember... (Pam spray? not sure)
I've heard of people using PAM and the stuff I use smells enough like it so it would probably work OK. The real stuff is usually close to $5 a can whereas my local grocery store sells a house brand of non-stick cooking spray like PAM for $1.50 a can when it's on sale. If I hadn't already gotten a couple of cans of anti-spatter spray for next to nothing at an auction I'd definitely give it a try. :-)

Most people use nozzle dip incorrectly and then complain that anti-spatter spray is better. When your gun is hot from use dip the end into the containter about an inch deep. Hole the gun over your container for a moment then hang your gun lead so that the nozzle is down and allow it to drain any excess . If you hang your gun upward after dipping the material rolls down inside to the gas diffuser and plugs holes. The use of angle iron to hold items in alignment is standard practice in commercial shops. Clamping the pieces into the vee of the angle is always a cussing moment. Randy
