Have any of you used the Eastwood spot welder attachment for arc welders ? I tried to spot weld a floor patch panel in last Friday and just could not get the 3-4 second arc I needed so I simply stuck it down with my 5/64-50 amp stick.
May not be pretty, but it's only a floor pan. I would like to know if anyone has had success using this tool and if so, how did you do it ?
:confused:

Anybody ???? Please :confused:

it's just shorthand for "back to top" if you want to bump a thread back to the top of a page if you want people to have a better chance of seeing it. good luck with your welding. wish i knew enough about it to help you out.

John, I bought thier spot weld set up when it first came out.(about 18yrs ago I think) :confused: I had a hard time with it too.Called them up and there answer was to practice more :( .It's been sitting in the box ever since.Some day when I have time I'll practice more. ;) Good luck,Jim.

Like Jim I have one of those antiques still in the box to. Of course back then I didn't have a mig welder. The mig does a much better job.

That floor pan needs welded in solid all the way around, not just spoted.

Good Luck
Troy

Thanks everybody....looks like I am going to have to give in and buy a Mig welder.. graemlins/clonk.gif ;)
