Miyachi Unitek Welder
Welder has now been trial run. Most plugs have been changed for more common alternatives.
Some modification will be necessary to allow the welder to run from a residential supply. As it is it's taking a fair chunk out of the mains (lights all flicker) so perhaps a decent DC storage bank will be the best approach. The precharge resistor will need to be softened (if it is present at all). -- Main.EdCheeseman - 02 Feb 2010
