The present embodiments are directed towards securing wire within a container. Advantageously, the present embodiments provide a system in which wire may be secured without modification of the container. Specifically, the present embodiments provide a floating tie down assembly configured to hold together a bundle of welding wire in a welding wire container. The floating tie down assembly is configured to float within the welding wire container, and the floating tie down assembly includes a lower removable insert, an upper removable insert, and a resilient material extending between the lower insert and the upper insert.

1. A system, comprising: a welding wire container assembly, comprising:a container configured to support a bundle of welding wire and comprising a wall having lateral openings;a floating tie down assembly configured to hold together the bundle of welding wire as a compressed assembly that is free to float within the container, wherein the floating tie down assembly comprises a lower removable insert configured to be placed against a bottom portion of the bundle of welding wire, an upper removable insert configured to be placed against an upper portion of the bundle of welding wire, wherein the upper removable insert comprises a rod-shaped insert that extends through the lateral openings in the wall of the container, and a resilient material coupling the lower insert to the upper insert, and wherein the floating tie down assembly is configured such that only the resilient material extends through a central opening of the bundle in the compressed assembly. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein at least the lower removable insert is configured to float within the welding wire container. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein the lower removable insert is configured to mount between a bottom of the bundle and a base of the container, and the upper removable insert is configured to mount above a top of the bundle, and wherein the lower removable insert, the upper removable insert, and the resilient material are all configured to float within the welding wire container. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein the resilient material is configured to pull the lower and upper removable inserts toward one another to apply a compressive force on the bundle. 5. The system of claim 3, wherein the lower removable insert comprises a disc-shaped insert. 6. The system of claim 1, comprising the bundle of welding wire disposed in the container. 7. A system, comprising: a floating tie down assembly configured to hold together a bundle of welding wire in a welding wire container, wherein the floating tie down assembly comprises a lower removable insert, wherein the lower removable insert comprises a disc-shaped insert, an upper removable insert, and a resilient material coupling the disc-shaped insert and the upper insert, and at least the lower removable insert is configured to float within the welding wire container, and wherein the floating tie down assembly is configured such that when the floating tie down assembly holds the bundle together, only the resilient material extends through a central opening of the bundle of welding wire. 8. The system of claim 7, wherein the resilient material is configured to pull the lower and upper removable inserts toward one another to apply a compressive force on the bundle. 9. The system of claim 7, wherein the upper removable insert comprises a rod-shaped insert, and the resilient material comprises a resilient band coupled to the disc-shaped insert and the rod-shaped insert. 10. The system of claim 7, wherein the lower removable insert comprises first and second openings, and the resilient material comprises a loop extending through the first and second openings. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein the first and second openings are disposed in a central portion of the lower removable insert. 12. The system of claim 7, comprising the bundle of welding wire disposed between the lower and upper removable inserts. 13. A system, comprising: a welding wire container assembly, comprising:a container comprising an opening and a storage receptacle;a bundle of welding wire disposed in the storage receptacle;a cover disposed over the opening; anda floating tie down assembly disposed in the storage receptacle, wherein the floating tie down assembly consists essentially of a lower removable insert disposed below the bundle, wherein the lower removable insert consists essentially of a disc-shaped insert, an upper removable insert disposed above the bundle, and a resilient material coupling the lower removable insert and the upper removable insert, and wherein at least the lower removable insert is configured to float within the welding wire container; andwherein only the resilient material extends through a central opening in the bundle. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein the resilient material pulls the lower and upper removable inserts toward one another to apply a compressive force on the bundle. 15. The system of claim 13, wherein-the upper removable insert comprises a rod-shaped insert, and the resilient material comprises a resilient band coupled to central portions of the disc-shaped insert and the rod-shaped insert.
