 @67975218 It depends on the size of the spot welder.

The last spot welder I used was medium sized and easily fit on the corner of the bench. 
 @翠星石 i sure hope the spot welder was free and open source! 
 @67975218 Such spot welder was proprietary and made out of proprietary hardware, but I'm not sure if it even contained software - as just a overheating responsive re-settable fuse would do.


I am not a fan of "open source" as it misses the point; https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.en.html

It also took me many times to read this before I realized just how proprietary the whole development model is; http://catb.org/~esr/open-source.html 
 @翠星石 just messing with you friend i see now there are pretty small spot welders out there ​:blobcat:​
