I've found for sale locally a Sealey spot welder, it apparently hasn't had much use, but is a few years old. It does come with a selection of different electrodes. It is an older type, the newer ones I've seen are all contained in the bit you hold, but this has a seperate box that contains the timer, and the welding bit plugs into that.

Tom my advice would be to try before you buy, just because its old dont mean its whick :) take a selection of thickness metal and have a crack Edited by Richie on 4th Jun, 2008.

if it works thats a good price, I was looking at them about a year ago and they were going for at least 150 S/H for basic ones.

Cheers guys, well I'm off to have a look at it tomorrow night so I'll take a couple of bits of plate and see what is what.

thats a good price if it is working properly, particularly if it has extra electrodes with it as well. You might need to put a 16amp socket into the garage for it though depending on the loads |

I have a handheld (SIP, had it for years) and I also have to run it on a 30A circuit and it still occasionally trips the RCD.

Anyway I've just been and bought the one locally, took a couple of bits of 2mm plate and spotted them together, with the reasoning being to see if it would weld through three plates (rear valance) OK. Here is the result 
Ended up giving the guy £110 as that was what he wanted with all the arms etc to go with it. I've had a play in the garage when I got back and did 8 spot welds in about 2 mins without tripping anything.

If you got a good selection of arms with it for that price, you did very well.
