Gear we actually use.
These aren't paid placements. They're brands whose gear sits on our bench, gets pulled out daily, and has earned a permanent spot in the shop. If you're building something serious, start here.
Edge Welding Cups
Better gas coverage. Cleaner welds. The cup we reach for.
Hand-machined pyrex and quartz TIG cups built for serious gas coverage on stainless and titanium. Better visibility into the puddle, cleaner shielding, fewer rejected welds. Every cup on our bench is an Edge cup.
Everlast Power Equipment
Pro-grade TIG, MIG, and plasma without the pro-grade price.
Industrial-rated TIG welders, plasma cutters, and multi-process machines that punch above their price. We've put thousands of welds through Everlast machines and they keep showing up to work the next day.
Optrel Welding USA
Swiss-engineered auto-darkening helmets. The clearest view of the puddle, period.
Optrel's auto-darkening helmets set the standard for clarity, response time, and all-day comfort. True-color lenses, crystal-clear optics, and the kind of build quality you only notice when you take it off at the end of a long shift. The helmet on our head, every day.
Got gear we'd actually use?
We're picky about who we partner with. If you make tools, gear, or equipment that fabricators pick up daily, get in touch through the contact page. We don't accept paid placements. The bar is whether your product earns a permanent spot on the bench.
