How to make a Arc Welding Machine with 4pcs Old Microwave Transformers.
Warning : If you do not know about electromechanics, the principle of transformer operation, do not do it at home.
And I think it's only for people over 18 year old , thank you

For the improvement, add switch for the transformator 3 and 4 at the power input so you can run ½ power, ¾ power, and full power so you don't make a hole when you weld thin metal.

Azman Hadi if you put a switch in the 3 transformer you turn off the welder. Connect them in parallel, and that will work. As they are connected now, if anyone of them is turned off, all the circuit goes off. Edit: this is completely wrong. What OP says is correct, and quite a good idea. I somehow completely forgot how electricity works for a while and managed to write this comment in that time.

I guess at that moment i thought for some reason that if the transformer is not powered the secondary somehow disconnects in the middle.

I made my welder from 2 microwave transformers about a year ago. Wired in series, except I used 14 gauge solid copper wire. 210 peak amps 140 welding. The best electrodes for my welding machine ate 6011 & 6013. Also, I wired a 30a breaker to a power strip, just in case. No problems, many, many welds

15 turns on each transformer. It still welds great. I have had to resolder at the ground clamp connection 3-4 times because of the solid wire. At the electrode holder I soldered a about a foot of braided copper wire. Will most likely do the same on ground clamp

A year ago i connected two of them in series there was like 800amps on the output when shorted ,but the voltage was small ,then i measured and noticed i was pulling 25 amps form the mains voltage nearly popping the breaker,so i dont understand how is this even possible without some king of balast..
