Eastwood spot welder
Any one use it for rocker install My body shop friend says its a great unit for this? heres pic.. price not bad
Quote:This tool produces spot welds very similar to those used when your car was built, and joins panels without the need to grind off weld beads. Spot welding is also fast, avoids distortion and confines heat. The spot weld gun attaches easily to your home arc welder set at 60 amps or less; simply connect the spot welder's cord to the electrode holder on your welder, ground as you normally would. Use the trigger to touch the electrode until a molten puddle of metal is formed. Then pull the trigger up to break the arc. Each electrode provides approx. 60-100 welds. Two

I have one and they do work well. All you need is a small stick welder for power.
