Stick Welding

Mechanical
- 2x $10 microwaves from Facebook MB = 90A (theoretical) stick welder.
- Used 2x 120V outlets for 240V (phase to phase) so breakers didn’t trip. Made 1x 110:18 and 1x 110:15 transformers in series. Now need some cool things to weld.
- Remember to check the microwave power rating next time.
Notes to Self:
- Easier to wind coil separately, cut open transformer, then put coil in. Compared to just winding the coil in the transformer right off the bat.
- Welding good is hard.
