plazma pipe saddle guides

By vern hall Date 11-17-2000 04:10

A friend of mine has some guides that slip over a pipe so you can cut a coped shape with a plazma torch so you can butt a horiziontal to a vertical. they are made out of a gasket like material and come in a set. does any one know what they called and who makes them and where I can buy them? your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Vern. I have a mechanical engineering friend of mine draw them up for me on his computer, and he will do the same for you if you would like. He is very affordable. He draws up the templates for whatever you want, and all you have to do is make a saddle from that, or just trace it on the pipe and cut away. In fact, he is doing me up another set. If you go to a supplier, a mechanical engineer drew them up anyways. I skipped the middle man....the salesman, and went straight to the source. Tell you what, if you are interested in my engineer's e-mail address......email me at

welding@uswest.net if you are interested, I'll put him in touch with you.

Thought I might help. Slagman.

another source of saddles is Ranchers pipe in OK,I've been looking for some metal saddles myself and this is the only place I've found that has them. THey are heavy duty and cost around 35 bucks each. They have a website at www.rancherspipe.com then go to the accessories section. At least I think thats the right section. Good Luck
