Homemade spot welder with foot pedal. Detailed instructions on how to build one.

DISCLAIMER:

The spot welder presented in this video uses mains voltage (110 - 240 V~). Always be careful when using this as a source for your DIY devices, the voltage/current involved is dangerous and potentially lethal if misapplied.

I'm not a trained electrician. This video is for entertainment purposes only. If you inted to replicate what you see, do it at your own risk.

This device is made for home use only. It does not cope with a 100% duty cycle and needs cooling after a few spot welds. Please bear that in mind when building/using your own.
