I was able to pick up a used M-K Products Model 3 weld positioner from eBay. I have been looking for one for nearly a year now and I found one that is in extremely good condition and not beat on.

It had some connections that needed attention for the ground cable and I had to machine a new fitting for the purge line.
Old connections.

New lugs crimped on and some heat shrink applied.

Inexpensive import 3-jaw chuck also arrived.

Tonight's task will be to machine and fabricate an adapter plate to mount the 6" 3-jaw chuck onto the 10" turn table of the weld positioner.
