Ok guys it has been 3 years since I made my first machine torch holder with laser alignment. Now that I have an MR-1 I’m able to mass produce and upgraded version. If you’re interested in picking one of these up check them out. Here is a link to the product. Machine Torch Holder - Becks Armory LLC
I’m currently making them for machine torches with outside body diameters between 1.335″ to 1.365″
Not a “Universal” Torch Holder
Gone are the days of relying on “universal” torch holders that risk damaging your equipment with their outdated V-shaped blocks. This torch holder is meticulously crafted with a round gripping feature, ensuring even pressure distribution and optimal performance for machine torches measuring between 1.335″ to 1.365″ in diameter. Precision is the priority.
I will be making additional skews for other torch sizes. Let me know what size your torch is and I’ll try to make a mount for that size.
Next on the list is a holder for the Crossfire XR. Than maybe one for hand held torches. Please post your torch sizes in the comments bellow. 
Looking for a more detailed explanation check out this video explanation and demo. https://youtu.be/iWlbzeOIwx8

Got mine on the way. Thanks Richard

Dangit, might have to venture away from these flimsy ball clamp mounts. I assume these are designed for the IPT torch diameter?
If I already have those laser line emitters and wired to a battery pack and switch… could just the mounts be purchased?

Yes I could offer just a bracket and hardware kit. I designed it to fit the IPT-80m. I’m not sure if the 60m and 100m are the same diameter as the 80m.
Due to customer feedback I have discovered that the Hypertherm 65 Sync also fits. If you have a 60m or 100m let me know what the outside diameter is. I would love to confirm if they fit this or not.

When I get back to “the shop” this afternoon, I’ll make a diametrical measurement of the IPT 60 for you. These are the laser line modules I ran with, confirm they’re similar / equivalent to what you designed around?

Sweet! I would LOVE to confirm the size of the 60m. I added a “hardware only” to the drop down selection menu. I was able to lower the price a little but not a massive amount. The machined parts are most of the cost.
As far as i can tell all these 650nm red line laser module are the same diameter. I think they are all 12mm OD. I can confirm when I get home.

1.360" od is what i got off of my ipt 60 torch…
Perfect! That is the same as the 80. You’re good to go. I’ll add the 60 to the list of compatible torches.

So too be clear the XR model that states 1.350″ to 1.365″ is not compatible with a Hypertherm 45XP = 1.380″ or it is?
Sorry it says it’s compatible below but then the diameters do not look like it might but 0.015" is not much so I wanted to be sure.
If it is compatible maybe change the XR model to say 1.350″ to 1.380″?
Thanks and I love the product!

So it says compatible with (but I haven’t added the 45XP to the selectable dropdown list yet). I forgot to create the option in the drop down list when I added the 45xp dimension to the website. I’ll do that today.

back ordered skews are about 2-3 weeks out. I’m running larger batches now but that means it takes me longer to run each batch.

I’ve updated the website. Let me know if it makes more sense now?

Awesome and yes the site now makes more sense to me, I just ordered one for my XR with Hypertherm 45XP Duramax torch! I am extremely excited.

Update: Thank you to everybody who has placed orders. I’m running batches of each component so I can keep the sale price down. I’m getting close to having all the parts machined so I can start filling all the backorders. Thanks for the support, your patience and understanding.
I’m running these all on my MR-1 (spindle melted down) which is back up and running great. I lost a week of CNC time but I’m trying to make up for lost time.
