Hey Sudoers, I’m lacking experience on spot welders and would like some feedback on how much power I would need to spot weld a steel clothes hanger (for example) to itself? Do you suppose this much power would work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2016-Pulse-Sparkle-Spot-Welder-Gold-Silver-Platinum… Looking for something that is set up to have a handpiece.

There should actually be a spot welder in Sudo somewhere. I know we brought one in when we emptied out the HayHackers storage space. Patrik On Feb 25, 2017 2:55 PM, "Cere Davis" <ceremona(a)gmail.com> wrote:

yes it's near the drill press. you need flux too, and to scrape off the paint or plastic coating the metal. On Sat, 25 Feb 2017, Patrik D'haeseleer wrote:

Flux? For a spot welder? Something about that doesn’t sound right. On Sat, Feb 25, 2017 at 6:38 PM, Jake <jake(a)spaz.org> wrote:

this item listed for sale below looks more like a TIG welder to me - usually i think of spot welding as being used for joining 2 pieces of sheet metal over/under but I have heard from a jeweler that he did like TIG welding for little stuff. Depending on the melt temp of the metal and whether the weld needs to be homogeneous, for that size you might want to consider brazing with mapp gas torch and solder with a lower melt point.

we have one in sudoroom that looks like this: http://www.grumpysperformance.com/400px-Spot_welder_diagram.png last time i saw it, it was under the end of the table behind the file cabinet that faces the big robot arm. it's heavy so i wouldn't call it a handpiece. if you wanted to weld two coathangers together i think you would need some pretty thick copper cables to whatever transformer you were using, if you needed it to be lightweight. i think a pair of really fancy jumper cables could be modified into a spot welder, maybe i'll do that with my really fancy jumper cables since i don't own gas cars anymore.....
