Abstract
A simulator system for use in simulating fabrication or construction comprises a simulation tool with a magnet mounted on a working end, a simulation workpiece comprising a substrate with an alignment location and at least one tool path indicator; and a sensor device with a corresponding alignment location and at least one magnetic sensor. The simulation tool may comprise a pivotable attachment block mounted on a handle. Different welding accessories may be mounted to the attachment block, and the orientation of the attachment block may be altered to simulate a particular type of welding tool.
