MIG welding small items?

[Blacksmith]

I've got a vise that I acquired from someone that did this. You can feel every burn mark in the threads while you try to use the vise. So, if you use the vise, make sure your work lead is attached so the current isn't going through the threads of the vise, unless you consider it sacrificial.

I consider it a vice to hurt a vise.

Mac, I clamped onto the fixed jaw. Shortest path.
