Although you have done an amazing job, I believe it would be easier to make a conventional stick welder into a spot welder by making the arms and copper points. By the way, I can purchase a commercially built spot welder for $450 and I would be guaranteed safety. So is it worth the effort?
All of those metal shavings can be easily picked up by putting a magnet inside a plastic bag, then picking them up, invert the bag, pull off the magnet & throw away the bag. Easy.
Microwave oven transformers are not “extremely dangerous” if you remove the original, high-voltage secondary and replace it with a low-voltage, high-current one (like in these projects). Otherwise, yes, they are probably responsible for more deaths than any other DIY project; the voltage one makes is comparable to that in an electric chair! The real danger is in disassembling the microwave; they contain capacitors that can store a lethal charge, even when the microwave has been disconnected from power!
Same is true for old color TV fly back transformers. More than 20000 volts, but at a low current. It can still knock you across a room...saw it happen about 50 years ago
That spot welder… super-professional work, from design to engineering. Top quality. Didn’t stop at just functional. Painted parts. Easily commercial level product. Well done! Also, that trick of shaping the electrodes on the drill press. Gold! I didn’t realize I had a vertical lathe at home. 🙏
Please everyone. Leave these high voltage projects to the professionals. They're cool, however you cannot be careless in the construction or use of them. You could be seriously injured or most likely killed. If you do choose to do this, be sure to use the correct protective gear and remember to ALWAYS respect electricity
This is slightly unsettling. It's far from clear what is actually being made here, the end results. The microwave oven high voltage transformer is extremely dangerous too, incredibly so. If you need a transformer to build a spot welder then use the right one, not a repurposed microwave oven transformer. Really, a novice watching this could get into serious problems. I studied electrical engineering and such a cavalier approach to systems driven by the domestic AC supply is a recipe for disaster. The material used for the heating element too (12:40), what is that? there are elements well suited to that purpose but you seem to have used copper, why? there seems to be no over current protection like a fuse and nothing to prevent the cables themselves from getting hot and melting the insulation, these are all important things to consider here - particularly if young inexperienced children might be placing their trust in you.
I’m afraid, after reading many comments, that people who lack the knowledge and understanding will try to duplicate this. That’s where the danger truly lies.
Nice spot welder only thing i would do is place a strain relief insulated cord clamp where it enters the metal enclosure also make sure all metal parts are earthed transformer, metal case bonded to the green and yellow PE wire through the plug to power supply

@@bertalankiss8742 but that is the point ... correctly!! In this video .. open with a hammer is everything but correctly ... there could be International damages on the components ... and with the build of the point welding . No Primarstufe earth connection... no input Fuse... no security wire to the metal housing ... it is no question IF something goes wrong ... only WHEN it goes wrong
People if you like to tinker with electronics like i do but your an amateur at best LEAVE these high voltage projects for professionals. Or at least until you are way more advanced and safety and PPE is second nature.

That´s a total intelligent way to build something from old things: First crush it with a sledge hammer. This will help to salvage running parts, especial electronics....
If anyones wondering, that tank he cut and welded the square onto was a pressure tank found in rural homes with a well. It maintains the pressure of your water supply without running your pump constantly. It has a rubber bladder filled with air that compresses against the water pressure.
Rural you say. What if you in down town but your house is on top of the highest point in downtown and the water pressure isn't enough to "push" the water up your hill? And yes this does happen. Either way a booster pump would be installed to aid in getting you water from the bottom of the hill to the top and a bladder tank, which is what they are called, is used in this application as a reservoir same as with a well pump. Also small bladder tanks are installed over water heaters for the sake of thermal expansion but we won't get into that
@@derrickfeltner6634 I think the important thing was it was not a gas tank, with all the "interesting" safety concerns that cutting into one can raise. A small steel barrel would also do as it is just the holder for the fire clay.
Never crimp copper cables to end connector with a pair of pliers, use the proper tool or just solder it in place, then add the shrink wrap. On plastic bumpers, you melt the wire into the plastic on the inside that way it will not be seen from the outside, then sand and bondo the exterior for a cleaner finish.

I like your style your inventions remind me of things I would make but less rugged I usually don't make my inventions look that nice I just build them to work but the time and effort you put in definitely pays off in the end
What is that yellow box he makes it look like thats the power it has to plug into the wall to transform anything thats why its called a transformer you cant just create power from coil windings
I came across one of your videos today and got hooked on it. I had a day off from work and for the majority of the day I just watched your videos. You are quite talented, skillful, creative and outright genius.
🛠🔩🎨 Wow, the spot welder is a true masterpiece! The level of professionalism, from design to engineering, is top-notch. Not only is it functional, but the painted parts take it to a whole new level of commercial-grade quality. And that trick of shaping the electrodes on the drill press? Pure gold! Who knew a vertical lathe was hiding in our own homes? Incredible work! 👏🔥👍
I wouldn't advise anyone to try this at home. This young man's homework paid off!.. I'll stick to my 1920s hit and miss engines, and my John Deere... Great! 👍 video
Perfect! I'm totally impressed just how impeccably technologically sound your work is. It's just stunning, what you do. Bravo! And you have a nice music taste.
K, so I've made the spot welder. It actually does work. I thought the video was all microwave builds, and I expected the arc welder too. I'm definitely gonna try the pressure tank smelter! 😁. I L😍VE diy builds.
@@zackscoolvids I've been using a standard 110V plug from my garage outlet, which is on a 40 watt breaker, haven't tripped the breaker yet. Keep in mind I'm not welding anything thicker than about 1/8" thick, but it does well. Aloha!
Your videos are amazing. You need to continue this excellent work for other topics. In engineering, we used to always put a note... "All work to be performed in a workmanlike manner" ... You really define what a workmanlike manner Is in your videos.
I would never recommend letting anyone with little knowledge of electronics try any of this on their own. I worked my entire electronics career as a technician, first in the Air Force, then commercially. In the military on Radar, with up to 1500 volts at enough to let you know you don't want to touch it. Outside, up to 80,000 volts in X-ray equipment, I called those voltages, "Crispy Beacon" voltages, 80Kv at 5 to 8 amps, if you mistreat it, you fry.
Well and the fire hazard and insurrance issues… If homemade Electric stuff cause fire, there are no one Else to blame.. Than you. Even if you actually did a good job and everything is at great standard🤷🏼♂️
@@k9officerft434 Agreed. I've been hit enough times that I'm very cautious about high voltage. It seems that safety feature to keep you from getting tagged, it's the one thing that dies first. That leaves high voltage tanks in X-ray equipment live. Being over cautious kept me alive.
I put myself on a pedestal by saying stuff like"this is the most dangerous sidewalk anyone has ever walked on"then walk on . The power i feel is amazing.

You don't get a second chance after blowing your arm off. And I never trespassed High Voltage signs either so I don't know what I'm missing and that's great. Likewise, you're a master craftsman with all the right tools. Great respect for your 2nd life projects in good hands.

Strong magnets inside. It’s worthwhile to salvage them.
You could easily die though... might be more worth while to buy a strong magnet or vise

Adding a list of components for each build would add value to this video.
