Being a welder is one thing but being a welding business owner is a completely different thing. As someone who’s been running a welding business for over 11 years now, it takes a lot of knowledge and skill.

#9 Going Portable

One of the greatest improvements with welders is that they’ve been getting smaller and smaller. Some of the very first welders I used 20 years ago were as big as a tank. Ok, I might be exaggerating a bit but you get the idea.

Nowadays you can get welders that are portable like the Deko Pro Welder. This handy little welder is as small as a suitcase and runs on a normal 110 outlet.

Best of all it’s portable and can be used nearly anywhere you want to bring it. If you’re a small-time welder working out of your garage this is the perfect option for you.

As a welder one thing, you need to be able to do while welding is to be able to see what you’re welding. Once you strick that arc it can be fairly easy to see what you’re welding but what about when you’re not.

This is where the MIG Light comes in handy. This heavy-duty light fastens to the neck of your welding gun that allowing you to position yourself and see where you’re welding.

#13 Plugging Holes

When it comes down to it welders love tools, especially if it makes their life easier. One job a welder has is to plug an unused hole on a project. If you freehand it will likely need a lot of grinding and worst of all get stuck to the welding table.

This is where the Hole Plug Magnet comes into play. This simple little device magnetically clamps to your table and covers the bottom of your hole to help you get a smooth flat weld that will require no grinding afterward.

This little tool is small but it is mighty and worth every penny in my opinion.

#16 Turn Up the Heat

One unique tool a welder needs from time to time is a way to check the temperature of the metal they are welding. If you weld metal too cold the weld won’t adhere and will likely crack off. In other cases depending on the type of metal you’re welding you’ll need it to be heated up in order to weld it.

The is where an Infrared Laser Thermometer comes in handy. With this simple little tool, all you have to do is a point and click and it will instantly tell you how hot or cold the surface of the metal is.

We use this tool when we weld AR400 metal plates which we heat up to 300 degrees before welding.

#20 MIG Gun Holder

One aggravating problem I’ve come across over the years as a welder is where do I put my Welding Gun when I’m not welding. You could hang it on your welder, lay it on your welding table, but that will likely result in a damaged welding gun or at the very least falling on the ground.

Instead, why not get a MIG Gun Holder like the one from CNA. This is a handy tool that not only holds your MIG gun but also has a magnetic base that allows you to move it around to where you need it.

So don’t just lay your MIG gun on the ground, you’ve likely paid a lot for that welder and the last thing you need is a damaged MIG gun.

#23 Welding Helmet Cooling System

If you don’t know much about welders or you are one yourself you know how hot things can get especially in the summer. In fact, some factories can get up to 120 degrees in the welding booth. The problem is you can’t just turn a fan on because you’ll blow the shielding gas off of your weld.

The solution to this problem is the CoolBelt Welding Helmet Cooling System. This device hooks into your helmet and pumps cool air into your helmet as you weld.

With clean air and no more sweat getting in your eyes as your weld, this handy little tool is worth its weight in gold to have on those hot summer days.

This is where the KAKA AC-60 Angle Clamp comes in. This handy little clamp helps you get an accurate 90-degree angle every time without having to use a square and constantly tack and tweak to get a part to get it right.
