Re: magnetic copper welding plug

I think I have had that one on my wish list for a while. I'd say that the first hole in a firewall that you use it to back up while you weld the hole up will pay for it. I've got the spoon type one that I got off Ebay but unless you can reach around to hold it or have a helper it isn't all that great.

I'd have to go out and count them but have something like 30 holes that my uncled drilled in the box of my 71 GMC to weld up. I went out and looked and there 16 holes in the drivers side of the box to weld up 12 being on top and 4 for the J hooks and probably 17 on the passenger side as my uncle drilled a hole from the inside through the inner panel and the outer panel to bolt a small tool box inside the bed at the back. I remember Dad buying him a 3/8 drill for Christmas one year.
