Threw this concoction together tonight and thought I'd share. Victor torch tip, bicycle brake cable, 5/16 flat washer, uni strut clamp and a level vile. Enjoy

Thanks. I filled some pretty I knarley nicks so balancing was needed. Not many places open at 3 am so I used what I had.

The guy in the video is such a geek!

Lab coat and heavy work gloves and safety glasses? Gimme a break....

Yaknow now a days it seems everyone on youtube is wearing those blue medical gloves.

Your simple blade balancer looks like a great idea. Sure beats my usual method where I clamp a nail in the vice
It's funny you mention the nail in vice method. After watching the video, I realized I should've done the same thing with my torch tip. Would've been much easier but not as fancy lol.
