ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for forming circular weld joints includes a support frame, a motor having a primary drive shaft, a secondary drive shaft coupled to the primary drive shaft, and a hub mounting plate affixed to the support frame. A floating hub assembly is included and a chuck which is coupled to the secondary drive shaft and has at least one radially offset receiving bore. A MIG-type welding tip is rotated in a circular path upon activation of the motor to form a circular weld. Stabilizing guide members and depth guides are provided which extend outwardly from a support frame to ensure proper positioning of the welding tip during the weld forming operation.
