I’ve always wanted to try this, so I just did it! It’s very easy and work really well.
you’ll need
3 x 12v car batteries
2 x pairs of jump leads
1 x arc welding rod
and maybe a pair of mole grips (vice grips) to hold the rod, this makes it much easier.
A welding mask is a good idea, but bit of a pain to carry with you ‘just in case’. Otherwise a few pairs of sun glasses will be ok-ish!
