Manual Wire Feeder for TIG Welding Thin Metal

[chy_farm]

Thank you for.......helping me get my head screwed on straight. As I .......enter the senior stage of life, I find that my manual dexterity suffers. I was thinking of making a small wire feeder for TIG wire, but as usual I over complicated it with using a feeder from an old Mig machine with another foot pedal to advance the wire etc. Your idea got me back on track as far as the KISS principal. Even I can still move my thumb, so I don't need the *feel* as much. This is the perfect solution. Denny

Good morning Denny, glad to know it can be of some help to you. Seems you are at around my age Denny, I will be 64 this July. Let's enjoy some more welding!

Clever, free, and we don't see this very often.

Exactly Jon. Probably because of the tremendous advances in technology, I tend to over engineer sometimes. This is the perfect example of not needing space shuttle technology to solve a toilet paper holder problem.

Good morning gents, thanks, for nice words!
This feeder and a 'Halogen Welding Light with Sensor' are a couple on my welding table, will post this Halogen Light later.
