It was in there. About the middle of the video. Quite impressive! He used a vice grip and a bare lead.

Yeah, never seen anything like that. It was impressive to see that rebar melt like butter.
I'll rewatch, I was skipping through. :hithead:

ETA: Damn! That is crazy! I might could weld with rebar. I always got the electrode stuck, because I sucked. lol

I watched a pair of pliars melt with a 12v battery. Dumba$$ wanted to test if it was charged by extending the handles across the terminals. Of course it stuck, turned red hot and started sagging. Ruined the battery, pliars, and the dumba$$ got severe burns on his hands.
That welder is awesome if one needs to weld 2" thick steel in one pass. LOL.
Rebar weld is at the 5:33 mark.
