**** UPDATE 4-11-26 see below for a suggestion for a good storage/carrying case ****
In this video, I show the model UK1 mini-spot-welder by manufacturer AWithZ. I show what comes in the box, what the important dimensions are, I do a teardown, showing internal views. I talk about charging the welder and which AC power supply I bought to use with mine. I read through key points in the small user's manual, and do a brief test and demonstration of the welder. Finally, I provide enhanced instructions, walking the viewer through all operator controls, what all the settings mean, and how to make them.
I have prepared an Enhanced Instruction/User's Manual, and a PDF of it may be downloaded here:

This welder, foot pedal, cables, probes, accessories and generic AC USB power supply all fit perfectly into a zipper carrying case sold by Amazon under the name "Case Compatible with Brother Plus PT-P710BT Label Maker" by Peyyargo. I fit the welder base and foot pedal side by side on the 'bottom' of the case (the case 'bottom' does not have the web mesh pouch, whereas the case 'cover' DOES have the web mesh pouch), and the Velcro partition separates the remaining space in the 'bottom' to just fit the AC USB power supply and the USB charging cable. Then, the welding cables/electrode probes, sandpaper, spare welding tips, nickel strap, and coiled foot pedal cable all go into the case 'cover' web mesh pouch.
