Introducing the Seams Impossible – Internal Weld Remover

Many of us have been in knee deep in the bin at the steel yard struggling to get two pieces of steel to telescope only to find the internal weld seam on the larger piece makes it impossible.  We now have a tool that will help!  With our tool and a power drill you can cleanly remove the seam from the inside of any piece of square steel tubing 1″ or larger!

Is your weld seam off center?  No problem.  You are in control of the “jacket” that surrounds the tool.  All you need is your table saw or router, some wood scraps and a little bit of patience.  Just measure the two sides, the top dimension and cut a 3/4″ channel into your blank.  You can then locate the holes for the fasteners by drilling through the tool body and into your jacket.  After that, all you need to do is chuck the tool in your drill and pull it through your tubing!  The entire jacket making process is covered in detail in Matt’s video below.

Do you need to make a Jacket for your Seams Impossible?  We have a Fusion 360 file, some basic tubing size STL files (suitable for 3d printing) and some instructions can be downloaded here: https://gregsgaragekc.com/wp-content/uploads/SeamsImpossibleJacket.zip

BACK IN STOCK!

We just completed a production run of almost 1200 tools.  We also expanded our offerings to include 3 jackets made from HDPE.  The jackets come with a shim pack that allows for adjustment for off-center seems, and tolerance differences from one tubing supplier to another.  The jackets can be purchased separately or as a set of 3.  We have also included the new “Ultimate Kit” that includes the tool, the burr, a fastener kit, an extension, 3 jackets and a shim kit.  Click the STORE link or choose from the links below.

I work on a lot of guitars so I made this neck rest that not only holds the subject guitar off the work surface, but it also has a place to store all my important tools so they aren't wandering around the bench scratch up the finish on the guitars under repair.


Every needed to cut perfect circles?  Me too!  I created my take on a circle cutting jig out of acrylic.  I gave it a ruler and an easily adjustable center point.  You can download the V-Carve CNC file HERE.


Holy cow...  I thought I was throwing money down the toilet when I ordered a $169 3d Printer kit from eBay, but for some unknown reason, I ordered it anyway.  Well, I couldn't have been more pleased.  The kit was easy to assemble and it ran and printed right from the sound of the starting gun.  Literally 10 minutes worth of tweeking and I was printing parts.  I would definitely recommend this to someone as a first 3d Printer project.  It has the same framework as the I3 and it has a GT2560 circuit board that is a merging of
