## AI overview

Greenhill Forge built an Arduino-controlled rotary welding table to rotate round workpieces at an adjustable, consistent speed. The design uses an Arduino UNO Rev3, a stepper motor with a gear reducer, a rotary encoder, and an OLED screen, while a ground strap provides a current path that keeps welding current away from the electronics.

## Source excerpt

MIG welding isn't very difficult -- at least not until you need to weld something at a weird angle or over a long seam. Those situations will make your welds look like they were done by an inebriated amateur. The best way to handle that is by setting yourself up to maintain stability through the [...] The post This custom motorized turntable makes welding easier appeared first on Arduino Blog.
