Where a spot welder can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a spot welder already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Spot welders set up and tend spot welding machines designed to press and join metal workpieces together. The metal resistance to the passage of electrical current and the subsequent heat created in the process allows for the local melting and joining of the parts.

It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
