Tigged and Powder Coated Tungsten holder

Made myself a little Tungsten holder today, different length tubes to suit longer and shorter tung, for both 1/16 and 3/32. Padded the inside bottoms with foam. Also made a small pen cup, right now it just has some random filler rod in it. Also got my powder coating kit in the mail, so..........tada!

No ragging on the crappy welds......im still learning.

Re: Tigged and Powder Coated Tungsten holder

Nice jobs, and why would anyone rag on those welds. They look good. What material is the holder made of? I'm assuming steel with all the red tungstens I see.

Thanks and you are correct, all the tubing came from an old set of bicycle handle bars that I cut up. If you look close the two in the middle have a weird almost triangle shape.

Where did you get your powdercoating kit from?
