[TheForge] Tidying up welding leads

[Mike Sweany]

old lectricians trick.  coil em in figure 8's  
 
On a cart or truck  make a bracket a half section of 4" or 6" pipe top and bottom a ft or so apart with a flat plate stop frant and back of the pipe to keep the coils on . sorta like an overgown  roller chain link.

Anyone got any good tricks for tidy ways to keeps welding leads from
tangling? Ive just put my tig/arc/plasma box on top of my mig cart, its a
good idea as I now have an all in one, portable welding station but what a
mess the leads get in, there are 6 leads and the 2 power cables, what Id
like is something like the recoiling airhose/water etc housings you can get,
those are really expensive though, anyone ever made their own? failing that
mabey some sort of swing arm or something?.....
Anyone got any tricks to pass on?
