took a cheap 4" c clamp and tried to wire wheel as much of the already half burned up from welding coating off the one side and hit the little pivot deal too, cut 2 pieces off some angle i had and welded .  works good for tacking pipes together instead of tape or magnets sometimes

I have been thinking about doing the same thing but with one of those vicegrip style welding clamps.
