Abstract: A torch guide for use in cutting metal plate. The guide includes a base member which has a longitudinal channel therein and a magnet on one side thereof for removable attachment of the base member to a metal plate. An elongate straight edge is at least partially mounted within the channel in the base member for slidable movement relative thereto, the ends of the straight edge extending beyond the ends of the base member. A plurality of thumb wheels mounted in the base member lock the straight edge relative to the base member to prevent relative movement therebetween. An end support member is connectable to either end of the straight edge, the end support member also having a magnet on one side thereof for permitting removable attachment thereof to the metal plate. A torch tip holder slidably engages the straight edge for maintaining the torch tip at a uniform distance and at a preselected angle relative to the metal plate.
