Step 2: We Will Add a Second Coil

Step 3: Box

I use old ATX psu for the box

Step 4: Timer - Switch - Welding Needle

01. Timer

You try to use other types but there is a note that you should select the timer can set the value is 0.1s. Because if your transformer is of great value long time can burn nickel.

02. Switch

I use a foot pedal from old motor bike. You can use a button as step 1.

03. Welding Needle

I use a needle of electrical soldering iron gun. There are many options for you

Step 5: Modular Design

I designed the module to avoid the wires.
