If you build much out of angle iron these little flippers will be a real treat. And i have welded about a bazillion feet of angle. (The shown flippers are made to fit 2 inch and 3 inch angle.) Most of the time you have to lay out and cut, on both sides of the angle, to get it ready for welding. With these simple flippers you can set the angle up in one position and then just push it over and the flippers hold the angle in that position too. Then flip them back at will. Be sure to put an expendable sheet of steel under the angle to protect your weld bench.
