Im trying to make a welder. The secondary wire is too thick though, Cant get enough turns. The next step down though in wire would be 14/2 awg which should give me 11awg. Im looking to get 10awg because I dont think 11awg is thick enough for 85 amps / 18 volts.

D-did I do it right /diy/ ?

I currently only got 7 wraps with the 6 gauge jumper cables on the secondary which gives me 7v and 255amps. This picture is my goal. I just need to find the suitable wire, probably around 10-12awg.

This is what im thinking of buying http://www.ebay.com/itm/AC-220V-2000W-SCR-Voltage-Regulator-Dimming-Dimmers-Speed-Controller-Thermostat-/200912763111
Would it work?
