I have followed DGW's feed on this project with enthusiasm and have some observations. For the 'arms' of the welder I used some 22mm copper tubing and a bought length of 15mm x 3mm copper strip. This provides good stability and permits a good pressure to be applied to the weld material So far, using 3 turns (I couldn't fit any more!), i was able to obtain around 400 amps on testing.

Those copper tips are very nice indeed.... I saw the thumbnail at work and hurried home to watch the video. Before you took the shunts out, I was saying "take the shunts out, TAKE THE SHUNTS OUT" but it shows how little I know.
The spotwelder we did use in the factory had copper rods that had about 5 mm diameter. They was kind of very slightly rounded perhaps, almost flat tips, the point is to get contact and heat the plates up, if the copper rods is too pointed then it just goes trough and makes a hole instead. The spotwelder had a foot pedal, so one put the plates on there and pressed with the foot. I dont think it had a separate switch, i think the switch was in the foot pedal system, but make sure it gets good contact before switching on if making something like that. It had a spring system so the pressure on the plates could be adjusted i think. I think you perhaps have more power in your spotwelder than what was in the factory spotwelder. I did not mess too much with the spotwelder but did use it a couple of days, i mostly did welding with the large 3 phase mig welding machines there. Sometimes now and then i did run the welding robot too, it was high tech back in 1990-1992, one did just put the pieces in the jig and it did welding the pieces by itself :)
I found I could slightly increase performance by first polishing all the copper then giving a light coating of high temperature grease. This did do some good for mine.
And keep the clamp meter away form the transformer because the leaking magnetic field causes it to display a higher current than you're actually drawing form mains.
In his first video on this project he says he wants to preserve the original primary coil from the microwave. Besides, it is tedious to wind 100 or so turns on that transformer, because he wants to avoid cutting the iron core open. The core was welded shut by the microwave manufacturer.
Hey Diode remember the multimeter has the max function, you could have used it to check the max load for example. Thank you for the video and keep up the great content!
Nice project. This got me thinking... To make welds consistent you could make foot switch which switches transformer off when secondary voltage falls below 1V - meaning welded material has melted and electrodes got closer together.
You may reduce the resistance losses by flowing solder onto the end of the cables before inserting them into the clamps. Or better yet, flow the cable, then add a solder trace from the cable to the clamp. Might be able to reduce it even more by putting the bend in each cable instead of using a second clamp to angle into the tips. Great video, BTW.
Such a good project after third video it really looks like a spot welder. Lots of people are making spot welder from microwave oven transformers but little or no explanations.
Thanks for this set of videos! I've been thinking of building a spot welder for years, but never got around to it. Your video has inspired me to finally get it done.... I have a 1200 watt microwave with a fused secondary on the transformer, and will be building a spot welder soon from that. I wish I had saved some of the degausing wiring from the old CRT TVs I recycled. I'll have to get a couple of heavy starter cables off of a wrecked diesel truck in the neighbohood u-pull-it wrecking yard next time I am there. The diesel starters have to have large gauge cables because they draw so many amps to overcome the high compression that diesel motors have. Especially the older GM diesels because they used huge direct drive starters with no reduction gearing.... One question I have is how to do spot welding on copper or steel strips when building battery packs out of used rechargeable cells. It would seem that one of the contacts would need to be set up to have a larger surface area so that the heat of the weld would be concentrated only at one of the two electrodes. Might be a topic for another "episode" in your spot welding playlist. Thanks again!
You should put a switch for the spot welder on the primary side to have less wear on the electrodes and the welding material. When you make contact trough the electrodes you have kind of an arc melting the material away. You should use something like a relais on the primary side to switch, optimal a SSR (solid state relais) with at least 40 or 60 A capacity - they are quite cheap.
I saw ad that when I was helping my dad with his router yesterday... I thought 'that looks leeethal' we were trying to work out how it was supposed to work
If you make the tips a little less sharp to increase the surface aria, the spot will not burn thru. (need to experiment with metal thickness vs tip diameter and time).
Hello sir, love your videos! I would like to suggest a video on Dummy Load Testers as they are extremely popular and fail often. I have a DL24P 180watt load tester that failed last night.

maybe the automatic switch on the arm is not such a good idea - if the electrodes weld together, you will not be able to power it off. foot switch feels like a more controller solution
@@DiodeGoneWild be careful with zinc fumes. Breathing too many of those in gives you flu like symptoms. Don't ask me how I know. Up until too much is no problem though. You're OK until you aren't.

You should use graphite or tungsten tips instead of copper ones (since they don't weld themselves into welded material and then would increase potential weld throughput and also reduce tip wear).
Nice build. I noticed some white smoke when you were spot welding the steel plates and some white residue on your electrodes after welding. This is probably zinc oxide, either from a coating on the steel (zinc plated, or galvanized), or the alloy (brass?) your electrodes are made from. It is quite toxic ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fume_fever ) and may also weaken the weld. Zinc coatings can (and should) be removed from steel with hydrochloric (aka muriatic) acid before welding. If your electrodes are brass (copper/zinc alloy) you might want to replace them with pure copper.

You can do that, but the power factor wont be too bad under load without it either, so it wont make a huge difference. It also increases the inrush current, which is not great. I would probably leave it out.
I think you do not need a pedal switch, you need primary triac board control with a pedal switch. What is the max input current of the circuit breaker?
how do you remove the enamel of the copper wires with a scissor? i mean you have to do that with 300 wires, 600 of both, if you delay 30 seconds each one, there are like 6 hours-8 hours, so i dont think you used scissor to remove the enamel, it takes way too much time

Transformer just the way it came out the microwave with the wire attached causes the energy in its
perfect spherical motion to converted wast thermal energy to amp for u hot to cold in to out...
should look a bit nuts with u use a form of wireless energy but its interacting with the environment...this is my work a compilation of Otis car. Tesla. and many other very smart people nowadays i think i found the gate source and drainif this gets out to much that it works the
power comp and mib will have our headsdont do this at home warning high voltage yet i cant stop u lol DO NOT TOCH THE CORES OR THE WIRES OK u will die make sure u dont touch the core if the hi wire is mounted to it u dont have to mount the hi on the core if u dont want u connect the 1 hi wire to the same side hi on the other transformer then the core should besafe to handle if nessary
@@DiodeGoneWild gov will have all heads for this tech thay teach us that we always have loss but never talk about
the converted gain we can make from eletromagnets
if u convert all the wast thermal energy around
you u can use it universally as energy u need a true sine wave bipolar like the power comp dose a
true pure sinewave like a grid tie inverter
once the signal is made the system will turn on and
consume wast thermal energy from the
environment and space around you... there is free energy but it comes from Universal thermal loss and converted into a gain. so a pole Transformer and a
microwave Transformer have a common between each other u can take 2 microwave Transformer provide
a pure sine wave grid tie inverter to it or a true bipolar sinewave that inter acts with nature in
a perfect spherical motion like a flower of life.. if ur home provides this use it as a Source
signal then u can simply stack the Transformers on top of eachother in correct fasion and note
that the 1 wire on the Transformer must stay connected and the other disconnected your only useing
1 wire on the hi side .. so test ur self

Spot weldeeerrrr. :)
is that possible to use a parallel capactor with primery of the transformer for some power factor correction ?
You can do that, but the power factor wont be too bad under load without it either, so it wont make a huge difference. It also increases the inrush current, which is not great. I would probably leave it out.
I think you do not need a pedal switch, you need primary triac board control with a pedal switch.
What is the max input current of the circuit breaker?
Try it with adding high power capacitors in secondary winding and show the results please.
how do you remove the enamel of the copper wires with a scissor? i mean you have to do that with 300 wires, 600 of both, if you delay 30 seconds each one, there are like 6 hours-8 hours, so i dont think you used scissor to remove the enamel, it takes way too much time
This is how rover used to make cars🙂
This is bad ass!
The pointy electrodes are part of the problem. They should be blunt, flat surfaced.
All about functionality
Just out of the curiosity, what is making that buzzing sound? 🤔
Mostly the transformer core.
@@k4be. Yes, but how? There are no moving parts. Vibrations?
@@Numian Likely the most important phenomenon here is called magnetostriction, that is basically, ferromagnetic material changes its dimensions when magnetized.
@@k4be. I see. Thank you!
@@Numian there are moving parts. We just can't see them because the parts are very small. They're called electrons. In this gear they're going back and forth 50 times a second. And that's where the noise comes from. It is called AC hum.
Goede uitleg vorige film , maar helaas deze film heeft geen ondertitel. en probeer het toch te volgen, bedankt.
flatten the contacts. makes a much better weld :)
Niiiice project mr. DGW. 🔩 ⚙️ Keep it up & see you next video. Stay healthy!!! 😊
i thought you was making a spot welder for 18650 batteries!
14:25 You need a lever to apply stronger consistent pressure
Wait... Is this patrons-only? Im not a patron and I see this before the release. I think someone accidentally put this into a public video list:) Anyway, great video!
Yes, it is patron only now :). Is it my playlist or a playlist made by somebody else? I put it into a playlist, but it seemed that it's not visible to the public.
Well, it's visible in my playlist :). I thought that unlisted videos in a playlist are not publicly visible. It seemed invisible from another browser, but it probably was just because I didn't refresh the page :D. but anyway, only 1 person seems to have noticed in 2 days :).
@@DiodeGoneWild This video was recommended to me by youtube, I was just a subscriber
@@DiodeGoneWild Your playlist lol.
Shouldn't it make no sparks during welding?
It's probably mostly from the coating on the steel.
@@Basement-Science Alright, thanks for the answer.
Heat steel up enough and it sparks.
