Small pipe welding fixture

[Frank S]

This is a simple alignment fixture for joining small diameter pipes.
I have a lot of shorter pieces of 1" sch 40 pipe that are too short for the upcoming project I have. So I decided to spend a few minutes and make a simple fixture to hold them straight in alignment while I joined them
It consists of 3 pieces of metal that were already cut offs from something else 2ft of 1 1/4" angle 18or so inches of 1/4x 1 1/4flat bar and a piece of 4 inch C channel a few 1 inch long tack welds and a trip to the band saw and the fixture was ready
