Interested in hearing what equipment anyone may have/use and how it works for you on collision work part replacement.
A shop I worked at circa 1971-72 (some dirt is still older than me) had a resistance welding unit that had a pinch clamp and was capable of making 2 spots at a time with 2 hand held electrodes. It was 220V, had some power and It worked well. All I can remember is that it was in a white metal enclosure with a timer knob on the top. Never seen one like it since. Tested one once I think was Lenco brand and it didn't work for $hit compared to that old unit mentioned above.
Any old guys here remember anything about that old spot/resistance machine?
