David;
when you say the spot welder is not quite right, just what do you mean?
If you have scrap sheet metal that is perfectly clean- that is NO rust,
paint, or oil, film and dirt!- will your spot welder provide good
transfer of heat? That is the resistence of the electrodes have
sufficient ground to create a weld through heat build up.
You may have tried to spot weld your car's sheet metal and failed to
perfectly clean all surfaces- that includes the facing surfaces at
contact with the sheet metal and the surfaces that the
electrodes/contacts meet. All must be clean.
I have have a Miller Spot Welder that I have used with great success on
the Ford project.
