RE: [oletrucks] make an alternator into a welder?

["Schorn, Tim" <Tim.Schorn@fortworthgov.org>]

Hi Guys!
  Has anyone heard of doing this, or better yet done it themselves? Maybe you 
have a sketch or diagram of how I might do it. I'm thinking of using some of 
that immense space under my hood to mount a bracket with a second alternator 
that is run off the engine but not wired back in to the truck. How would I 
convert this alternator into a "portable" welder?

  Thanks for any help you can offer!
